WE LAUNCHED!
We officially launched the South African PropTech Association on the 10th of April 2019 at Perch in Rosebank, Johannesburg. The launch was invite only, with a unique mix of attendees including an array of property professionals, venture capitalists, bankers, PropTech suppliers and technology entrepreneurs.
The evening consisted of finger food networking, technology demo’s, PropTech pitches, an informative South African PropTech map presentation by co-founder Sean Godoy and a perspective altering PropTech panel discussion, which included Vuyiuswa Mutshweka (serial entrepreneur, CEO of the SA Institute of Black PropertyPractitioners), Mic Mann (CEO of Singularity SA) & Mashilo Pitjeng (industry leader, MD of TseboREAL Asset Management).
The feedback has been very encouraging and we are excited to host our Cape Town launch on the 16th of July at Spaces V & A Waterfront.
OUR MISSION
To recap, the South African PropTech Association’s mission is to promote, enable & grow the South African PropTech industry, while connecting with an international network of similar bodies and PropTech companies from all over the world.
