“We believe that Indian entrepreneurs are among the best in the world, with exceptional ability to build products at scale and at value,” Mahanyele said, adding that she had observed during a visit to Delhi in November last year how there had been a significant focus on inclusion and development in India.
“India and South Africa share a long history and we at Naspers are very happy to have been able to replicate that through our investments and the history of our investments in India. India is a high-focus country and a lot is being done on tech, and so we as a tech business are heavily invested in India.
“India and South Africa are at the forefront of technological advancement and digital transformation and jointly harnessing the power of technology. We can drive efficiencies and create new areas for businesses across our economies,” she said.
