CONNECT  INSPIRE  EMPOWER
SAABC champions the success of global South African professionals

It's a fact that people with greater social capital close more deals,
are better respected, and acquire higher ranking jobs.

Internationally South African business professionals
are known as accomplished, highly qualified, entrepreneurial thinkers and hold impressive leadership positions. We share a common bond
with Africa and as pioneers.

BUILD YOUR BUSINESS    GROW YOUR CAREER
SAABC is a networking forum for business professionals with a South African affiliation 
working within the global business community.

We believe that building a business network within a community—or “tribe”—of like-minded
people with similar values and cultural heritage, creates a unique bond and belonging.

SAABC MISSION:  
To connect and inspire the global South African business community and empower each other and the next generation of leaders and entrepreneurs through philanthropic activities.

Services for you... 

ADVERTISE YOUR SERVICES
As consumers, we have long embraced word of mouth as our primary method of gaining trust and doing business with someone. Growing up in South Africa that meant a quick call to a friend or family member to find the right lawyer, accountant or doctor. 

However, as we all moved into the global community there was no longer our grass roots network of trusted advisors to draw from. Over the years SAABC has dealt with thousands of requests for such referrals and this has led us to create our Service Platform.
