Africa's First Capital for Youngest Talent Pipeline

While the world talks about the future of systems change, join the changemakers who are building it in the heart of the youngest continent.
About this Event

Sustainable change isn't forced; it is developed.

Johannesburg is undergoing a quiet, radical transformation. In the heart of the CBD, a new "Education Town" is rising—not through public master-planning, but through the visionary "inside-out" revolution by changemakers transforming the lives of grassroots African youth through demand-driven eduation.

We invite you—the funders, impact investors, and philanthropists shaping the future of global economy and security—to an exclusive briefing on how we are turning the "unlikely pockets" of Johannesburg into a global blueprint for urban renewal and human capital.

With the recent donation of the iconic 45 Main Street building by Anglo American and the launch of the "Field of Dreams" sports precinct, Education Town's footprint has expanded to nearly 650,000 square feet. This is more than a campus; it is a living system that is achieving what was once thought impossible:

A 95% job placement rate for graduates from marginalised backgrounds.
R41 billion in projected lifetime earnings for its alumni.
The Revitalisation of the impact capital of Africa: Leading the charge in safety, cleaning, and economic productivity by the largest population of youth on earth.

Why Attend? You will hear of leading-edge opportunities in:

Impact Investment: How "Education Town" serves as a catalyst for exponential socio-economic return on investment.
Perpetual ROI & SROI: You will learn about the 37-award-winning ecosystem that turns unemployed populations into a perpetual financial engine for sustainable growth in the heart of the world's largest super region.
Exponential Regeneration: How your capital can help reclaim the youngest continent's heart, creating a safer, more vibrant talent pipeline for the global economy.

The greatest resource is the human being. Join us to hear from our founder, Taddy Blecher, and the Chair of our Board of Trustees, Jon Samuel, to discover how we are unlocking that incredible resource with highest return on investment at lowest costs.
