The technologist who decayed into a businessman

Jens Montanana, at 49, has a schedule that would make most 30-year-olds balk, but he says he’s slowed down.

When Jens Montanana needs to take time out to relax, you can be sure he doesn’t get on a plane and go on holiday. Last year, the CEO of Datatec boarded 235 planes to oversee his operations in London, New York, Brazil, Singapore, and, more recently, in China. A holiday for him is three days of quality time with his family.

He’s a man with two homes, technically three if you count his small place in Johannesburg as well as his permanent homes in Cape Town and London.
