IBU BAPA ENTREPRENEURSHIP PROGRAMME 2026 SUPPORTS PARENTS WITH SEED FUNDING AND BUSINESS TRAINING

The Ibu Bapa Entrepreneurship Programme 2026, led by Nicol David Organisation (NDO), supports parents in developing entrepreneurial skills through business training, mentorship, and seed funding.

A total of 24 participants were selected to join a 2-day intensive Business Bootcamp where they learned digital business mastery, Business Model Canvas development, and pitching their business ideas.

Following the bootcamp, 12 businesses were selected for a six-month mentorship programme and received RM2,000 in seed funding to support their business growth.

The programme aims to help parents launch or expand their businesses, increase family income, and improve overall well-being. Participants also receive monthly coaching sessions, expert guidance, peer learning opportunities, and a final showcase of their progress.

The initiative is supported by Hong Leong Foundation with implementation partner mereka.io.
