Business support for mothers: debut of the first incubator in Almaty for entrepreneurs who are mothers
New Business Incubator for Mothers in Almaty Set to Open Next Year
A new business incubator for mothers, named "Isker Ana," is planned to open in Almaty next year. The social center, based on the successful model of "Bakytty Otbasy" in Medau district, aims to provide training, support, and resources for mothers to start and grow their own businesses.
The incubator, which held its first graduation in Almaty last year, has already made a significant impact. Many mothers have completed the "Business Bastau" course and received certificates, paving the way for their entrepreneurial journeys. Among the graduates is Zhanaat Zhumabekova, a mother of multiple children, who bought a sewing machine last year and has been sewing ever since.
Zhanaat is one of the five individuals who received a grant of two million tenge each to start their own business. She plans to use the grant to launch a sewing business. The social center has managed to sell products worth ten million tenge, demonstrating the potential for success for its participants.
The Deputy Akim of Medau District, Aidos Nurlybayev, noted that if mothers come to them after the course, they will be supported and helped further. The center also provides professional skills training and consultations with established businessmen to help mothers develop their businesses. Potential investors are also introduced to the mothers of multiple children at the center.
The new branch of "Isker Ana" has already found a suitable location. The center hopes that with this expansion, more mothers will be able to benefit from its services. The center also aims to help mothers who care for children with disabilities, as some of the graduates have stopped receiving targeted social assistance after starting their own businesses.
Despite the lack of direct information or documented success stories about this specific incubator in Almaty, the potential for growth and impact is clear. To find more detailed information, you might need to consult local Almaty social enterprises, NGOs focused on women's empowerment and entrepreneurship, or official city development programs. The future plans and impact of the incubator remain to be seen, but with the success of its graduates, it is sure to make a significant contribution to the lives of many mothers in Almaty.
