OM DENNE PODKAST 🔗
The People Building South Africa. Host Mashudu Modau sits down with the entrepreneurs, investors, operators and ecosystem builders shaping South Africa's future. Together, we go beyond the headlines, funding announcements and success stories to uncover the failures, pivots and defining decisions behind building in one of the world's most dynamic entrepreneurial landscapes. From township-born brands and independent African media companies to technology startups, manufacturers and category-defining businesses, these are honest conversations about what it really means to build in South Africa.
