This year has been a testament to our unwavering commitment to fostering an inclusive Economic Ecosystem, a commitment that has reverberated through the corridors of SMEs, industries, and communities.
Levelling the Playing Field for SMEs: A Pinnacle Achievement
In the intricate tapestry of global economies, SMEs continue to emerge as pivotal players, propelling growth, innovation, and employment. At TTL, our dedication to levelling the playing field for these enterprises has manifested in tangible ways. We have witnessed SMEs not just survive but thrive under our impact-driven Enterprise and Supplier Development (ESD) programs. Our conviction in the transformative power of small and medium-sized enterprises has resulted in the positive transformation of over 14,000 lives, a testament to the far-reaching influence of our initiatives.
Nurturing Entrepreneurial Culture: A Pillar of South Africa's Heritage
Reflecting on South Africa's rich history of industriousness, TTL has proudly taken up the mantle of nurturing a culture of entrepreneurship.

In 2023, TTL's endeavours have not only honoured this heritage but have also propelled us into a future defined by prosperity and economic inclusivity, in alignment with the principles of Ubuntu.
The Transformation Legacy Turns 6: Celebrating Resilience and Impact

By profiling six of these enterprises, we showcased the profound impact of our support on their entrepreneurial trajectories.

Keynote speaker Mkhaphi Nkosi illuminated the potential of ESD as a powerful tool to overcome poverty and address the pervasive issue of inequality. This event brought together government and industry representatives alongside SMEs, reinforcing TTL's pivotal role in shaping dialogues that drive sustainable change.

OUR THOUGHT LEADERSHIP PIECES
Levelling the playing field for SMEs through an inclusive Economic Ecosystem
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) play a crucial role in driving economic growth and development in many countries around the world. They are the backbone of many economies and significantly contribute towards creating jobs, driving innovation and entrepreneurship. In many cases, SMEs are the force behind the development of new products and services that can transform industries and improve people's lives.
Part of Our Heritage Should be Nurturing a Culture of Entrepreneurship in South Africa
In the chronicles of history, South Africa has always been known for its spirit of industriousness and innovation. From the early days of mining and agriculture to the emergence of a budding tech ecosystem today, our nation's entrepreneurial spirit has been a cornerstone of progress.
As we navigate the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century, it is imperative that we rekindle this spirit and build a culture of entrepreneurship, while focusing on rectifying the exclusionary economic legacy, which is a crucial part of honouring our heritage of Ubuntu and propelling us into a prosperous future.
