What happens when local ambition meets international expertise?
During the Boost Camps in Lubumbashi and Kolwezi, twenty businesses from the Lualaba and Haut-Katanga provinces received intensive guidance from both Belgian and Congolese coaches. OVO organized this program at the request of Enabel, in collaboration with local partners in both regions.

The mission? To empower local entrepreneurs — often young women and men — with knowledge, coaching, and hands-on tools to grow their businesses sustainably. And it works.
“In Kolwezi, I saw with my own eyes what entrepreneurship can mean for an entire community. The energy, the ideas, the courage of these entrepreneurs is truly impressive. With the right support — and especially through the collaboration between local and Belgian coaches — opportunities arise that change lives. That’s when you know: this is why we do it.”
