Swiss and South African Payment Systems and Cybersecurity Training
Why SwissAfricaPayCyber
Why This Program Is Needed Now
International expansion brings opportunity, but also risk. Swiss SMEs entering African markets must navigate different digital payment ecosystems, evolving cybersecurity threats, and complex regulatory environments. At the same time, they also face increasing cybersecurity and compliance requirements within Switzerland’s increasingly digital business landscape. However, existing training programs often focus on market entry while overlooking cybersecurity, digital risk, and regulatory preparedness.
Program Value
By training business trainers who, in turn, train SMEs, we create a multiplier effect:
- Swiss business trainers gain future-relevant expertise.
- Startups and SMEs are better prepared for international markets.
- Cyber risks are addressed proactively, not reactively.
- Switzerland strengthens its global competitiveness and resilience.
The 7 Week Train-the-Trainer Program offers:
- Cross-continental learning with Swiss and South African experts
- Cybersecurity at the core of international business training
- Practical and applicable content and not just theory
- Built for collaboration, networking, and long-term exchange
The 7 Week Train-the-Trainer Program is designed for:
- Business trainers and educators
