A ROUND OF APPLAUSE PLEASE!

When we first heard that we would be running an Entrepreneur theme competition with Raizcorp , we knew that it was going to attract some serious attention.

We received some amazingly creative designs from both new designers, as well as Springleap veterans, who have proved their skills in the past.

However, when the grand prize winner was announced at the Entrepreneur exhibition last night, it was a local South African designer, Rondine Carstens , who was jumping for joy.

CONGRATULATIONS Rondine!!

Many of you will probably better know Rondine by her Springleap name, NEN101 .

Her winning design Passion=Results was a huge favourite at the exhibition, which earned her an overwhelmingly favourable response from the judges .

The Passion=Results concept epitomises the most important aspect of being an entrepreneur.
Having “passion” is the most VITAL ingredient for success!

Some entrepreneurs get lucky , but it is only those who truly believe in what they are doing and who have the zeal to succeed, that rise to the top and change our world.

We hope that the prize will help Rondine take her design career to all new heights, or even give her the springleap that helps her start her own entrepreneurial venture.

Watch this space everyone, this is one designer that is going to undoubtedly keep impressing us in the future.

Thank you to all those who entered and to Raizcorp for making this competition possible.
