Today, Wesgro, the official Tourism, Trade and Investment Promotion Agency for Cape Town and the Western Cape put a spotlight on global opportunities for business in 2021.
The event, attended by businesses stakeholders, and senior representatives of all levels of government, also provided an overview of current trends, risks and opportunities. The agency was particularly pleased to welcome, Mavuso Msimang, one of the most experienced public sector leaders in democratic South Africa, as keynote speaker.
Mavuso Msimang touched on the need for a collective effort – from the public, media, the private and public sectors – to fight the scourge of corruption that has been holding South Africa back in the last 27 years and the need to demand accountability from those we have put in power. He went on to state that the last line of defence for South Africa is its citizens – citizens need to demand more.
