Launched ...now what!


As you all know, we launched The Collab Movement today.

This is more a short and personal share from me but also a very, very, very, very, very big Thank You to all for making our launch day so meaningful.

Us, as a bunch of South Africans, got together to get a plan going and here we are -  right next to you, with you and for us all.

To co-found such an NGO for me took a bunch of commonly shared reasons and not much self convincing. In short we all wanted more. More for SA,  more for us and more opportunities happening all round. We want us to thrive as a Nation, to be a counterpart to leading economies and we felt that we can do this - with a plan.

For me personally the vision also stemmed from noting developments and challenges  in other Nations, while noting ours etc. It then got me thinking hey, we have similar issues but surely we can be delivering on economic building activities as they are too. Our diverse group shared the exact same sentiments, wants and needs and so starting The Collab Movement was very easy for all the co-founders.

To structure the way, our approach, the decided strategy I can say was not as easy in context of many things but we did it and brought it down to the principle idea of  Universal Economic Participation.

While the Media Statement on Tcmovement.org details more, again this is a plan which can only be achieved  all round with you.

We saw great numbers, questions and engagement  (eish guys my fingers are a bit numb from all the typing!) And again we Thank You!

What's next you ask?

A few new reveals in the next week's but as guided in the Media Statement, it's a process and according to a detailed plan.

AND IT'S ALL POSSIBLE TOGETHER!😉😉

Sleep when you must!

  To have a company in a forward leaning sector where industrialist nations refer to it as an economic stumulus, the factories of the future and a next space race, can be somewhat extraordinary to say the least. This, together with keeping relevant through fast paced business developments, making real time and well considered decisions while remaining ethically bound to the wings of the vision, leaves you in constant think mode at hours deemed for rest. By who exactly is rest confined to conventional patterns and hours which anyway some of the world's most extraordinary people have shown to reject in sleeping at work desks for a bit or their production floors. And still achieved anyway. My Asian colleagues for weeks would do the rest, work, rest, refresh -all at work- thing.  I'm that person who sleeps only a few hours. I can also can sit for hours thinking and prefers to do so alone and even at the expense of most inviting company or events. I get that my friends in health and

No substitutes for basic health

Today I spotted someone from a distance with a cold sore that stood out as he was walking towards the treadmill. Much of what we know is those things are not a good sign of a immunity and are a form of a hepatitis/STD related, laying dormant to never go away as are with warts on hands etc. What I am saying is that even with advance medical choices, you still must excercise basic care for all else to complement health and wellbeing choices.  Washing of hands is necessary and no vitamins can substitute for that cleanliness if you just think over things like public door handles, elevator buttons, money and all the exchanges of it ..to then to use your hands to apply moisturizer your own face, to cook, to handle kids etc.  It's like the basic principle of wearing hairnets in industrial kitchens and with food handling or preparing of (massive respect to Big Mouth Sandton specifically as not spotted in other top end sushi bars frequented). Some basics apply and always.  Like no 'perf

Precipice Innovation

One has to wonder a few things over. In a single particular order when it comes to Climate Change, this remains paramount to address. For the longest, hardest times of relief and aid to matters of human doing and suffering, still, there was the element of geography and geopolitricks at play.  Without going into depth of what is meant by this, look at where poverty seemingly is by design ..alongside diseases and big name involvements. Yet still it could be considered of a human attribution for these unmet challenges. But when we look at very literal, visible climate related matters - we can't wait to act on these with interventions. If things can even be intervened. World encounters of mass biodiversity destruction like currently seen with Brazil's floods are starking eye openers,  once again. We know food systems are imbalanced and climate demands a complete overhaul in how to address industrial designs and processes. Greed and dominance still at play in whom gets to faster and
