It’s a little surprising that Joburg has only recently set up its own dedicated tech incubator. Widely recognised as the economic hub of the continent, never mind the country, the opening of the JoziHub in February this year has given the city some sorely needed geek cred.

Situated at the popular 44 Stanley complex in Milpark, which is close to both Wits and the University of Johannesburg, the JoziHub is a joint venture between non-profit technology innovation house Praekelt Foundation, and search engine giant Google.
