Business Connexion receives award from CSI registrar

Business Connexion has been recognised by the National Corporate Social Investment Registrar, a member of the South African Department of Social Development, for its efforts in uplifting and furthering South African society and its people.

As part of its formal accreditation and acknowledgement programme, the National CSI Registrar has awarded the company national Gold Community Contributor status. The National CSI Registrar is South Africa's national grading authority and sector moderator of all aspects and activities attributed to corporate social investment in the country.

Benjamin Mophatlane, CEO of Business Connexion, says: "We are honoured to have received this recognition from the National CSI Registrar. It effectively endorses our ongoing efforts to empower young people to change their lives, as well as those of their communities, through technology."

Focus is on underpriviledged

Business Connexion is currently running five national CSI programmes. In addition, the company has included ten charitable NGOs and Article 18 companies as part of its Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) deal.

"The majority of our CSI funding is allocated towards implementing IT laboratories in partnerships with schools. We focus mainly on rural schools and those in underprivileged communities," Mophatlane says. "The investment in these IT laboratories extends beyond infrastructure implementation to encompass a two-year commitment from Business Connexion to partner with the schools to ensure a full understanding of the technology."
