Using Design Thinking and Entrepreneurship to Support Private Sector Growth and Productivity, as well

We kick-started the second cohort of the Adwumaura Programme on 16th September 2026 with insightful sessions focused on building the mindset and personal capacity needed to thrive as an entrepreneur. Dr. Edward Nii Amar Amarteifio led the first session on the Entrepreneurial Mindset, exploring how participants can develop the right mindset to identify opportunities, navigate challenges, and grow their ventures.

The second session, facilitated by Dr. Serwaa from the Counselling Unit, UCC, focused on Emotional Intelligence, Stress Management, and Work-Life Balance. Participants explored practical ways to manage emotions, reduce stress, and maintain a healthy balance between their entrepreneurial responsibilities and personal lives. A strong start to the second cohort as we continue empowering participants with the mindset and skills to build sustainable ventures.

Another exciting milestone at the Design Thinking and Innovation Hub! 🚀✨

We recently hosted a Pitching Event for the Department of Hospitality and Tourism Management, University of Cape Coast, as part of the end-of-semester practical exams for their students. 🎓

Instead of a traditional exam, students stepped up to pitch their big ideas live! They showcased months of hard work, creativity, and critical thinking in front of an audience.

The D-Hub was proud to provide the venue and a panel of experienced judges who assessed the pitches on depth, feasibility, and presentation. 👏

Moments like these reflect exactly why we do what we do; creating spaces where innovation meets education and where students get to test their ideas beyond the classroom. 🌟

Huge congratulations to all the students who presented, and a big thank you to the department and our judges for making this collaboration such a success!

We can't wait to host more impactful events like this! 🙌

Financial freedom doesn't happen by chance. It starts with the right mindset and intentional action.

Yesterday, the UCC Design Thinking and Innovation Hub (D-Hub) facilitated a financial literacy workshop for the GNAT Wesley Local on the theme *Foundations for Financial Independence*. Led by our Director, Dr. Edward Nii Amarh Amarteifio, participants explored what it truly means to be financially independent and the practical steps to get there.

From budgeting and smart financial decisions to entrepreneurship, grey entrepreneurship, and mindset transformation, the session challenged participants to take control of their financial future.

Financial independence begins with the decisions you make today.
