Nkululeko Mthembu

Individual South Africa, East and South Africa

I lead a venture building practice that uses design thinking, data science, cultural intelligence & technology to build products, services & ventures. I have an interest in understanding people, their cultures and how they interface with their immediate surroundings and the World. It is this understanding - the context of people - that has put my practice in the domain of innovating through practical and impactful solutions. A brief stint in London and backpacking Africa by public transport, crossing borders engaging multiple stakeholders in a bid to understand Africa's Continental Free Trade Agreement lent to some incredible insight and experiences. These travels have shaped my Worldly view and allowed me to grow an Africa-wide network of incredible startups, academics, government leaders and civil society champions. I believe in multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches to problem-solving.
