In the wake of Covid-19, South Africa, along with the rest of the world, is experiencing very trying and challenging times. Despite this, the country continues to rise and remains one of the very few countries in the world to put Black lives and transformation of social injustice as a constitutional and legal priority.
Topco Media, the organisers of The Top Empowerment Virtual Awards, has been tracking and highlighting companies and individuals leading transformation in Africa for 19 years.
With Sne Dladla as the MC, a keynote address by Kganki Matabane, CEO of The Black Business Council, and a welcome address from Topco Media CEO, Ralf Fletcher, it was an evening not to be missed.
