Significant progress at Africa's first Science Park


The Innovation Hub's establishment as Gauteng's first high-tech cluster is fulfilling a need in a previously underserved market sector for knowledge intensive companies to connect, explore synergies and leverage business development opportunities.

As a snapshot of 2006: Tenant uptake at our precinct has exceeded all expectations. Our Enterprise Building is 100% full, while our almost-full Maxum Business Incubator is operating at a success rate of 80%, having supported 30 start-up clients since inception in 2000. Our unique CoachLab™ skills development programme has successfully linking business with 49 postgraduate students, and the Hub's INNOV8 community - South Africa's premier "intelligent community" network - has grown to more than 4 500 members, locally and from abroad.

As the year draws to a close, we wish to thank you for your continued interest in The Innovation Hub, as well as for your ongoing support in helping us achieve our objectives. We wish you a festive year-end and a joyful time with family and loved ones!

Season's greetings!
