My Work in Social Innovation

For the last 15 years, I have played a role in driving the growth of purpose/impact focused ventures on the African continent. Many of my friends and family, struggle to understand the nature of my work.

In the October / November edition of the Big Issue in South Africa, we were asked guest edit the entire magazine. Below is an extract of the articles, my team (myself included) wrote. Here is the pdf (click here) if you can’t read the text below. The themes covered include the emergence of social innovation, its ecosystem, the future of work, online safety in Africa, and a bunch of tech enabled innovations / investees we are working with.
