HOW WILL WE DO IT?
Purpose Challenge South Africa
On June 20, we will carry out a Purpose Challenge with the aim of creating the future of work in South Africa, for this we will define exponential initiatives using state-of-the-art innovation methodologies.
Inspired by the way Exponential Organizations (ExO), such as Google, Airbnb or Netflix, manage their organizations to scale exponentially, we will use ExO Methodologies to define purpose-oriented initiatives that are highly scalable and can positively impact the world.
Furthermore, we will harness the power of Exponential Technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Big Data, Internet of Things or 3D Printing, to use humanity's latest progress for our own benefit.
After the Purpose Challenge, the resulting initiatives will be in an idea stage, but can be further developed and launched with the support of our partners. Actually, the idea is not just thinking but also doing, and having a real impact!
