A market with a difference launches in Cape Town

A market with a difference, the first Market on the Edge, will be held from 28 - 29 August 2015 at the Cape Town Stadium. It promises to be a sensory sensation for the whole family - an indoor market to get inspired, eat, shop and play.

Market-goers can expect scrumptious food and beverages, over 80 innovative products including Lego robotics, electric cars, gadgets and more. Relax in the chill zone and enjoy local music and entertainment while leaving the children to play in the kids entertainment areas. Visitors can experience innovation intelligence in a truly sensory way - by seeing, touching, smelling, tasting and feeling innovation.

Also on display at Market on the Edge is the Inventor's Garage and Pitching Den:

Inventor's Garage 2015: Winners of the Inventor's Garage competition will showcase their prototypes and technologies.
PwC Pitching Den Competition 2015: The search is on for South Africa's brightest minds in innovation at this year's annual Pitching Den competition. Don't miss the Pitching Den where entrepreneurial entrants will showcase their ideas and technologies to a well-rounded panel of judges, and gain access to expertise, advice and - potentially - capital to take their inventions to market.

Market on the Edge forms part of the 8th SA Innovation Summit where South African, African and global innovators come together and showcase their exceptional talents, innovations and ideas.

Entrance to the Market is R50, under-12s are free.
