A catalyst for collective change
The Collective X is a collaborative digital ecosystem that meaningfully connects the supply and demand of South African digital skills by facilitating the right training, at the right time, for the right price, to impact our future in the right way.
We are a not-for-profit organisation, with a professional team driving execution and a board that provides financial and governance oversight.
South Africa’s digital skills revolution
In the last decade, South African businesses rapidly embraced digital technologies, creating a soaring demand for digital skills. However, significant challenges persist, primarily driven by the cost of education, which also lags the rapid evolution of technology. This combination has contributed significantly to a shortage of skilled individuals. The Collective X is a private sector-led initiative that unites leaders of industry to address our country’s critical shortage of digital skills. We believe that digital skills can unlock the potential of South Africa’s youth and promote economic growth, global competitiveness, and job creation for all.
Join us to transform challenges into opportunities, and shape a brighter digital future for South Africa
