Kuseni Dlamini is not afraid to think big for South Africa.
Despite its current woes, for example, he says “Eskom should be a global energy giant, that can go and build power plants in England.”
And he wants South African companies to try to design products for the whole world, not just the local market.
In a wide-ranging conversation, we look at how South Africa can unlock the talents within, creating more black and woman-owned businesses.
Dlamini sees this as a positive way of countering the critique — from Julius Malema and others — that white-owned capital is still running the show in South Africa.

Understand Africa's tomorrow... today
We believe that Africa is poorly represented, and badly under-estimated. Beyond the vast opportunity manifest in African markets, we highlight people who make a difference; leaders turning the tide, youth driving change, and an indefatigable business community. That is what we believe will change the continent, and that is what we report on. With hard-hitting investigations, innovative analysis and deep dives into countries and sectors, The Africa Report delivers the insight you need.
