Why We Built LaunchPath
LaunchPath was founded to address South Africa's youth unemployment crisis. Our goal: connect graduates with meaningful entry-level work by helping SMEs hire smarter and faster.
"We built LaunchPath because too many talented graduates were stuck on the sidelines while SMEs struggled to find good entry-level talent. Our mission is simple: make hiring faster, fairer, and accessible for everyone. This isn't just a platform. It's a pathway to opportunity."
