Kasi Vibe grows creative industry
Volume five of the Kasi Vibe Festival will take place at the Sam Nujoma Stadium from 1 to 3 March.
The fifth volume of the much-anticipated Kasi Vibe Festival is fast approaching and the organisers say the event grows bigger and better from one edition to the next.
According to Kasi Vibe Festival public relations officer Salmi Shigwedha, the reception and growth of the event is noteworthy and the aim of the festival becomes reality with each volume hosted.
“In terms of numbers of applicants, we were literally begging people to apply for stalls for the first volume, but now applications are pouring in and this is great for us,” Shigwedha said.
In terms of creativity, the organisers say the number of applications they receive that are not for food and beverage stalls are still very little and this is something they want to work on for the upcoming volume.
The theme for volume five, slated for 1 to 3 March, is branding connections through diversity, and the organisers plan to stick to it.
The Kasi Vibe Festival is a youth entrepreneurship and empowerment event that brings together young entrepreneurs.
The initiative aims to get Namibians from different backgrounds to come together to support one another's business ideas, and it is also a platform for young business owners to connect and engage with one another.
For this volume, the organisers are giving away 10 free stalls. One of the free stall recipients is Kevin Shivute, the joiner on steroids with his company Brynt Interior Concepts.
Shivute said the opportunity is overwhelming and thanked the Kasi Vibe organisers for giving youth a chance to showcase their skills.
