Every day, we co-create meaningful opportunities with like-hearted partners, and we continue to be inspired by the transformations we witness in individuals and communities alike. We are delighted to celebrate the companies within this extended ecosystem who are embracing this vital resourcing model, helping the Global Business Services sector thrive in South Africa, and creating meaningful employment for the next generation.
