While a technology issue prevented Dr. K’Nife from delivering his message this evening he was online and ready to share with our audience.

We know that you are committed and that we will hear from you in the coming days.

We are delighted to have UWI the number one producer of Caribbean leaders on board to help with building entrepreneur capacity in the Diaspora as well as for helping with the research for growing the pool of literature and informing the development of curriculum and solutions that are relevant to Jamaica and the Caribbean entrepreneur at home and in all our Diasporic markets.

Dr. K’Nife we look forward to your message and for having you join us at the helm in delivering the vision of the CoP.

I am indeed a proud graduate of the University of the West Indies and Taylorite.

On behalf of the members of the Community of Practice for Caribbean Immigrant (CoP), Magate Wildhorse Ltd, and I thank Mr. Vivion Scully and the Jamaica Promotions Corporation (JAMPRO), for sharing the vision of the Community of Practice for Caribbean Immigrant Entrepreneurs.

We are heartened by the demonstration of forward thinking that you have shown by recognizing how we can work together for advancing our mutual and different objectives and visions while creating greater impact. Greater impact for Jamaicans and the peoples of the Caribbean in the Diaspora and at home.  In addition, your action also says to your host countries that you are committed to helping their cities and people who struggle to attain economic and financial freedom.

As the CoP will serve our brothers and sisters in Africa, the USA, other immigrant entrepreneurs who are not native speakers of English, and Canadians who have no history of entrepreneurship in their families and face barriers related to sparse networks, “foreignness when it comes to talent”, as well as lack of access to capital, and entrepreneurial experience.

The gift of your message, endorsement, and commitment to support the CoP was well received by our members and appreciated by or audiences.

Thank you again Jamaica! “I’m a born Jamaican” means even more when agencies of our Government reach out to support us in the Diaspora.  We look forward to building mainstream Jamaican and Caribbean businesses with an ethnic flavor that will make your job easier.

Thank you again JAMPRO.
