Business Day Spotlight

In this edition of the Business Day Spotlight, we talk about the ways in which businesses affected by the recent violence and looting in SA can be helped to get back on their feet. Our host Mudiwa Gavaza is joined by Vusi Thembekwayo, CEO MyGrowthFund Venture Partners. Discussion points include details around MyGrowthFund and Sasfin’s new R350m debt fund; reasons why the two parties think a debt facility is a good way to address challenges currently being faced by affected businesses; thoughts around what it will take to rebuild confidence following the unrest; statistics illustrating the contribution of small businesses to SA’s economy; and an examination of the funding landscape in SA.
