About

Greetings, I am Grant Graham Johnson from Cape Town, South African and I’ve been building a start up called Okazi – a workforce on demand marketplace. I have an interest in expanding and onboarding more idle workers within the African continent. I’m looking to support start ups or SMMEs like mine and guide them along as they build towards their goals. As a mentor I can add value in assisting with new, fresh ideas and more of an advisory stance or even a business sounding board if any of their entrepreneurs so desire.

Mentorship motivation

I like to learn about industries and new businesses
I want to give back to the startup ecosystem and entrepreneurs coming up
I want to make new connections for myself and/or the organization I represent
I want to scout for new opportunities in engaging as an advisor or for a board seat

I can provide my experience and expertise to start ups as I know what it takes or what it’s like to launch a start up and I am familiar with the YEP Programme as I was a graduate of the said programme too.
