Event Description

Come and join fellow Silicon Cape community members for the first regular networking evening, aimed at promoting interaction between all participants, from entrepreneurs and service providers through to investors.

The keynote speaker for the evening will be Mark Levitt, CEO of Chesscube, who recently raised R10m from local venture capital firm InVenFin. Mark will be talking about how he built a global-facing online company from Cape Town, with a worldwide revenue and user base.

Comedian Mark Palmer will be breaking the ice on the evening along with some local "Silicon Grape" wines, which should ease the social interaction.

Please RSVP here to attend. Please don't RSVP if you don't intend to come, or if you can no longer attend please change your RSVP status so that the next people in line can attend.

Donations to help fund this event will be accepted at the door. Please bring some cash! Biscuit mill fare will also be on offer by Neighbourgoods.
