The 2019 Vision2030 Awards finalists announcement

The annual Vision 2030 Awards honour the achievements and share the success stories of organisations, enterprises and individuals that are actively demonstrating alignment to the government's Nine-Point Plan to boost economic growth and achieve the milestones set by the National Development Plan (NDP).

Leading by example, the finalists showcased by these Awards inspire their peers and all stakeholders nationwide to pledge commitment to the NDP - not in words alone but in actions that move the nation forward. Taking place at Emperors Palace in Johannesburg on 20 November 2019, the awards will recognise those who have played an active role in driving our nation forward within both the public and private sector.
