Business Opportunity

It is small businesses that keep the economy growing by creating employment and innovation. Remember that small businesses do not always remain small and have the potential to grow to become large corporations.

Many believe that the climate for entrepreneurship in South Africa is unsustainable. On the contrary, since South Africa is plagued by many problems, finding solutions to these problems would offer great business opportunities. So if you think of all the problems this country has, then you would realise that we have fertile ground for business opportunities.

According to Hollo Molatelo Matlala, founder of 4th Element Group, a technology solutions company which specialises in solar energy systems within the water sector. “The energy sector on a broad basis is currently the next biggest lucrative sector in terms of innovation and start-ups after the telecommunication sector in South Africa, as everyone is faced by the energy crises and solutions are needed fast.”

Besides finding solutions to the energy problems, we can attempt to solve problems identified by Minister Trevor Manuel, such as corruption, education, public health system, crime, unemployment, infrastructure, inequality, poverty and the list goes on.

It is evident that this country has many problems and therefore offering creative solutions to these problems will provide your business with opportunities.
