INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (IDC)
The IDC’s financial aid extends beyond business and entrepreneurs, providing support to a range of strategic corporate social investment initiatives (CSI). Investment is directed as a means of assistance, but also as a tool for upliftment to empower beneficiaries to better themselves, build their communities and grow the nation’s economy.
The corporation’s CSI interests complement its core industrial capacity development mandate, are strategically aligned to business and are developmental in approach, providing holistic, long-term project investment. They align with national development priorities such as job creation, education and skills development, targeting the most marginalised in our society towards socioeconomic transformation. The IDC proactively identifies suitable projects, collaborating with private sector partners to leverage resources and deliver greater impact.
THE IDC’S RESPONSIBLE BUSINESS FOCUS AREAS:
- Education and skills development
