Survé to be sued for a billion?

Harold Wilson said "A week is a long time in politics" and now Independent's Iqbal Survé may be finding a few months is a very long time in the media... Independent has lost a number of top staff, for various reasons, and now it seems Independent and Survé (and others) each in their own personal capacity could be sued by technology billionaire Robert Gumede. And if reports are correct, he'll be asking for only R1bn.

We all sympathise with the plight of the homeless and those in informal settlements, but now the problems facing the homeless and those in these settlements seem to be closer to home for outdoor advertisers, who are finding that the heavy rains in Gauteng have led to billboard theft, writes Tatenda Chiweshe.

Natalie Pool feels that great curated content is not to be underestimated. She reckons brands should wade through the content clutter to discover gems so that users do not have to, because it would be a valuable service brands can and should offer their communities.

A company is more than just the sum of its physical assets says Hilton Rose. It's also the relationships you have with your clients and customers, intellectual property, and much more - and it all helps to build the value of your brand
