Why South Africa
Skilled Labour Force
-
South Africa is home to various elite universities. Such as the University of Cape Town, which lies right at our door step and is ranked #1 on the African continent and #220 worldwide. With that being said, there is an overarching structural imbalance between labour demand and supply.

Fast Growing Tech industry
-
In recent years, technology ecosystems in South Africa has experienced enormous growth. This is due to increased corporate investment into the country. The ever-growing, innovative communities in the country have also been a driving factor in the growth of South African tech hubs.
SKILLED LABOUR FORCE
South Africa has an abundance of skilled jobseekers and a lack of skilled jobs available.
-
The number of South Africans graduating with degrees is increasing at a rate of 3.1% per annum.
