Ventureburn 2018 Startup Survey is here!

Following the success of both its 2015 and 2017 tech startup surveys, Ventureburn will again uncover the nuts and bolts of the SA tech startup sector, seeking to discover among other things:

  • What are the major challenges facing the country’s entrepreneurs?
  • What do South Africa’s startup founders look like?
  • What sectors are startups more prevalent in?
  • What types of funding are startups securing, and where are they getting their money from?
  • Why are people flocking to startups to work there?
  • Where is the most startup activity happening in South Africa?

    Criteria

    If you are a South African technology startup or small business with annual revenues under R20m and/or staff numbers of anywhere from one to 100, we want to hear your story.

    The data from the survey will form the basis of series of articles on Ventureburn and will be distributed to wider media and associated tech conferences. We will also create a case study, an infographic and hold an event surrounding the release of the data to the country.

    To ensure the integrity of the data, PwC will be involved to perform specified procedures, the results of which will be included in a report that will be available for inspection upon request.

    Stand a chance to win

    Participants stand a chance to win various prizes, namely: a Telkom Business in a Box Supreme solution including 24-month connectivity, valued at R31,000; a one-year subscription to Ventureburn’s press release service for their startup, valued at R12,000; and an exclusive mentoring session with venture capitalist Keet van Zyl of Knife Capital.
