"A mobile application called 'Mensh,' designed to benefit entrepreneurs with low service fees, has been launched."

Bright Mind Consult unveiled "Mensh," a mobile application that enables users to access services at minimal costs, today.

The organization, representing Bright Minds, stated that it conducted research highlighting the challenges faced by entrepreneurs in Ethiopia, such as lack of startup capital, market access gaps, and limited financial resources. Mr. Mekbib Zerihun, speaking on behalf of the organization, explained these findings.

The newly launched application aims to assist startup entrepreneurs, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by providing access to working capital loans, real-time market information, expert advice, and training.

Anyone with a business idea can download and use the application from the App Store and Play Store. Currently, the app offers services in Amharic and English.
