What an incredible day at the IVBG Showcase held on the 5th of March at CedarWoods of Sandton ✨

Our entrepreneurs truly showed up, bringing their businesses to life, sharing their journeys, and inspiring us all. From powerful pitches to brave individuals stepping onto the stage, the energy in the room was nothing short of amazing.

We were also honored to hear insightful addresses from our Programme Manager Thamsanqa, IVBG Venture Building Coach Nhlanhla Ndlovu, and our CEO, whose words continue to guide and motivate our growing community.

A heartfelt thank you to our valued partners, E Squared, Medicor Foundation, and Harambee for your continued support in making opportunities like this possible.

Here’s to building, growing, and creating impact together 🚀

The session was focused on strengthening leadership skills, fostering collaboration, and equipping our representatives with the tools they need to lead with confidence and impact. It was an engaging and insightful day filled with learning, growth, and meaningful conversations.

We’re excited to see our Trailblazer RCLs put these skills into action and continue making a difference.

From 27–29 January, we celebrated our Trailblazers in Limpopo through meaningful Badge Ceremonies, recognising their commitment, leadership, and impact. During this time, we also distributed materials to support their school action projects, equipping them with the tools they need to turn ideas into meaningful action within their schools and communities.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our partner schools as well as the principals, teachers, and our dedicated Champions whose support, guidance, and collaboration made these ceremonies truly special. Your commitment to nurturing young leaders continues to create spaces where Trailblazers can grow, lead, and make a difference.

Stay tuned to hear from our Trailblazers themselves!

At the end of December 2025, we had the opportunity to visit the sites of our IVBG Cohort 2 entrepreneurs and we were truly blown away ✨

We had the pleasure of visiting Ntombizodwa Thulo, an inspiring organic farmer based in Emfuleni 🌻🌱

On her incredible plot of land, Ntombizodwa cultivates sunflowers, potatoes, corn, pumpkin, and tomatoes, nurturing each crop with dedication and care. Her work is a beautiful example of sustainable farming in action and the power of growing with purpose.

From soil to harvest, her passion is evident in every row she plants. We are inspired by her commitment to feeding communities and building a thriving agricultural future. 🌽🍅✨
