No one person can do what ten people can do and our biggest challenge is transcending hubris, understanding what is at stake and engaging key communities on our journey to ensure change happens and can be taken forward by future generations.

The next industrial revolution is upon us and with it comes new challenges and opportunities. The longterm impact of failing to meet the challenges head-on and leverage opportunities on posterity are immeasurable. Much time has been spent talking and theorising and the time to act is now. We believe a connected Africa, engaged at the grassroots and equipped with the right skills is an Africa that can and will be able to meet the challenges head-on and leverage the opportunities to propel future growth. Unity in a changing world ensures better outcomes for all.

Our goal is to drive change and create economic opportunity by bring together the key stakeholders in education, employment, business and the investment space. OCCASIO Online is built with the unique challenges, shared histories, cultural sensitivities of Africa in mind. It aims to modernise and improve opportunities and outcomes for students, employees, employers, agents, entrepreneurs, investors and mentors. Sign up to join the conversation.
