SOUTH AFRICAN MARKET ENTRY & ENGAGEMENT
The Story
Just 1 year after the tragic death of South Africa's iconic leader Nelson Mandela, the Office of the Consul General was planning the annual memorial celebration in Chicago. The city's long lasting connection with the country of South Africa meant there were already deep relationships built within specific communities.
Through my involvement with this initiative a spark was ignited within me and from there I've continued to develop projects and relationships between the US and South Africa.
