  5. Congrats!! You have a complimentary ticket to Tech4Africa in Joburg on 31 October and 1 November 2012, valued at R1,800. You can also attend the AngelHub Ignite workshop at Tech4Africa with mentors from VC, Deloitte, IBM and top end entrepreneurs. With the opportunity to Pitch to the Tech4Africa audience for 3 minutes in front of an esteemed judging panel for the main prize if you are one of the 5 finalists.

    Why is this the Best #Twitch? Starting a business is difficult in SA. According to the World Bank Doing Business Report, we rank 44th/183 countries for 'Starting a Business'. Red tape is an issue for SME's, and the New Companies Act further complicates matters. Taking legal docs online is not necessarily new. Others are doing it. AngelList is doing it. But this #Twitch clearly identified a problem statement, offered a niche solution and also added a link to their website if the 'teaser' was interesting enough that you wanted to know more.

    Maybe now that SA President Zuma has been appointed to the UN Education Panel he can turn this outrageous #Twitch into a reality, and in the process increase SA's WEF Global Competitiveness Ranking in the Education space from:
    > Health and primary education: 132nd/144 Economies
    > Higher education and training: 84th/144 Economies
