Relevant Concept:
The concept to starting-up MiniChess Franchise Holdings Pty Ltd was born from the dream to empower dedicated local MiniChess Franchisees to take the award-winning MiniChess program to children, schools and communities around South Africa. The concept was very positively received and soon also spread to international In-Country Franchises.

Winning team:
We are dedicated to support our Franchisees to grow their businesses into quality, prosperous and sustainable local businesses – while being part of the drive to innovate education for the 21st Century.
The MiniChess program has won many local & international awards. Grandmaster Garry Kasparov endorses the program, calling it: “ The most scientific program in the world, linking chess with Education”

This Program is a MUST-HAVE in our time. The MiniChess-program uses play-innovations to teach critical 21st Century skills from the early ages – the things smart machines cannot do: creativity, problem-solving, forward-planning, strategic & entrepreneurial thinking, building effective teams, resilience, etc. These skills are NOT included in school-curricula, BUT is an ABSOLUTE MUST for preparing young minds for the fast-changing 21st century, of which the complexities are NOW starting to show.

21st Century relevance: Many youngsters are unemployed in this time of smart machines, because current teaching and training are hugely rote-memory styled – this is no longer enough for our children to thrive in a new world. We are part of EDUCATION-innovation for 21st century readiness, where the future workforce will work together with smart machines. Our program content and methodologies build HUMAN CAPACITY: the most powerful energy in the world! Many schools include us as their entrepreneurial-curriculum OR offers after-school & community clubs.

We focus on empowering minds form the critical early-ages (4-10 years). Our play-based learning platform moves over barriers of age, gender, culture, language and even physical abilities.

Local is best: Local MiniChess Franchisees take the MiniChess program to schools, pre-schools, any learning-center or holiday programs in their specific geographical Franchise-area. MiniChess Franchisees serves both self-paying and sponsored communities (in collaboration with Corporates and NPO’s). This is the business of the future – local business-owners serving the next generation with CRITICAL skills – and it is FUN games, story-telling, positive engagement all the way!
