We want to celebrate South African women in tech who are innovating and making their mark in the world.<\/b> <\/span><\/p>\n

Women\u2019s Day is an opportunity to celebrate the South African women who are making changes in our country. This is especially evident in the tech space, where women are starting non-profit organisations, founding companies, and raising their voices in support of women. <\/span><\/p>\n

But Women’s Day, or even Women’s Month for that matter, doesn’t do justice to the amazing work women are doing, not just in the tech space, but for entrepreneurship, creating opportunities for young people, and for the South African economy as a whole. As a business enabler, we at <\/span>xneelo<\/span><\/a> salute everyone working to make an impact in our country, and beyond, especially the women in tech making a difference. <\/span><\/p>\n
