Ep 6: The business of early learning: Rethinking impact through social enterprise
What happens when early childhood development meets entrepreneurial innovation?
In this powerful episode, Marli Hoffman joins us to explore how social enterprise models are transforming pre-schools into sustainable, women-led businesses that uplift entire communities. Drawing on her experience as co-owner of Little Ashford Pre-school and as a leader in educational innovation, Marli shares how she introduced tablet-based learning into classrooms, scaled its impact in underserved communities and reimagined what a pre-school can be.
Hosted by Kelsley Sharpley from Masicorp, this conversation explores how technology, infrastructure and enterprise can significantly impact outcomes for children, families and educators, particularly in low-income settings.
In this episode, Marli Hoffman unpacks:
The moment she realised pre-schools could be micro-enterprises
Her journey integrating technology into early learning
How ECD centres can drive education and economic empowerment
Why women’s leadership is key to thriving ECD ecosystems
