Standard Bank has partnered with E! Entertainment Television for New York Fashion Week. Standard Bank will sponsor the E! News Specials, as well as host a competition aimed at discovering local South African talent.

The Standard Bank New York Fashion Week Competition calls on aspiring entrepreneurs to describe how they would make their mark in South Africa. The winners could win an all-expenses-paid first-class trip to the February 2016 New York Fashion Week. The bank will also be sponsoring the E! News Special through various programming billboards, vignettes and other elements.

“As a bank for entrepreneurs, we consider ourselves to be a valuable resource in the value chain of entrepreneurship development in SA, which is why we are continuously seeking new ways to develop and support entrepreneurs,” says Naomi Snyman, senior manager for private banking at Standard Bank. “This competition is just one of many ways in which Standard Bank is reaching out to the public, our own customers and potential customers, and encouraging them to take up their place in the economy.”

For more information on entering the competition, go to www.standardbank.co.za or watch E! News Special, airing every Thursday at 8pm, on E! Entertainment Television (DStv channel 124).
