Connect ZA is an arts program from The British Council that aims to build cultural connections between young people in the UK and South Africa.

The Young Creative Entrepreneur Initiative is a year-long awards program for leaders shaping our creative future.

The initiative forms part of the Young Creative Entrepreneur (YCE) series that supports and connects entrepreneurs from across the world who are innovating creative and cultural industries.

To kick off the initiative, Connect ZA is calling on entrepreneurs between the ages of 20 and 35 in digital publishing and live music to send their entries.

Through an online application and interview process, the judging panel will identify emerging leaders in creative businesses who are able to make international connections and use these to benefit communities through positive economic, cultural and social means.

The prize is a curated trip to the UK to meet industry experts, interact with international peers, pick up practical business skills and attend key industry events.

Connect ZA is offering five awards over the course of 2014.
