Press coverage from SxSWSA

Here’s a roundup of the articles I wrote upon our return to South Africa:
South Africans rock Texas — a detailed report-back on the trip, published in the May edition of Brainstorm magazine.
Crowdsourcing startup investments — A report for ITWeb on South Africa’s own contribution to SxSW.
Tapping the crowd for start-up funding — published on TechCentral.
An update on Eve Dmochowska’s venture gives me considerable pleasure: as you can see on the CrowdFund website, the target of R1 million in pledges has been exceeded, with more than 350 individual investors wanting to get involved in projects to be funded by the CrowdFund.
Austin, it was a truly great experience. Provided we can raise the funding for the trip, we’ll certainly be back next year, in numbers.
