We were pleased to be welcomed back on CNBC Africa 's Power Lunch Southern Africa, this time with Palesa Mofokeng, to discuss insights from our latest release, "Is It Xenophonia?": a market intelligence report on the how the anti-illegal immigrant tension will affect business in the region.

Our Lead Strategist and Founder, Tshego Mosiane, shares more on how we've spent 4 months on the ground - analysing parliamentary records, social media listening, and documented case studies. This is an 80+ page strategic intelligence briefing for decision-makers, investors, and business leaders.

What You'll Learn:
1. Operational Risk & Compliance Intelligence
2. Grounded Market Intelligence
3. Strategic Business Continuity
4. Case Studies That Challenge the Narrative
- Stilfontein: A community that used legal channels for years
- Tshwane: Mayor Moya's documented exposés of migrant exploitation
- The kidnapping of Mazwi Kubheka: When criminal syndicates declared war on South African entrepreneurs
- The Amabutho: Spiritual warriors, not political activists

Why This Report Is Different
This is not a humanitarian report. This is strategic intelligence - grounded in parliamentary records, social media listening, and on-the-ground research . It is designed to help you make smart decisions in an increasingly volatile operating environment.

🗓️ June 2024

What started as a favour for a friend, during what I thought would be a short sabbatical back home, opened up an entirely new world of opportunity.

Our first project as @reconnected_ventures was a feasibility and market research assignment for a group of Eastern European investors exploring entry into South Africa’s cannabis market.

That project was a turning point for our founder, @kebidoo_ . It revealed just how many investors, entrepreneurs, and executives around the world are curious about African markets but struggle to find partners or advisors who are honest, grounded, and truly understand the terrain.

My friend knew he could come to me to help navigate the complexity of policy, politics, and the broader economic landscape. Even though I was on a spiritual sabbatical, completely unprepared, and far from the usual business centres like Johannesburg, I set up a makeshift desk outside, opened my laptop each winter morning, and got to work.

Those mornings planted the seeds of @reconnected_ventures 🌱

From my family’s home in peri-rural Mahikeng, South Africa 🇿🇦, I was reminded that you can build global work from anywhere—and that there is immense value in perspective rooted in truth, context, and lived experience.

Through winter 2024 (June–September), that simple desk became a global hub. We built a team, expanded our network, and refined our MVP—one conversation, insight, and decision at a time.

We were pleased to join @cnbc @cnbcafrica ’s Power Lunch Southern Africa with @zanele.morrison to discuss insights from our latest release, the African Psychographics Report [Vol 1], with a particular focus on the evolving South African middle class.

The conversation explored how behavioural patterns, trust dynamics, and economic pressures are reshaping consumer decision-making across the country — and how traditional market data is increasingly insufficient for investors, brands, and institutions seeking real traction in Africa’s fastest-growing demographic.

Our research goes beyond income brackets and headline statistics to map how South Africa’s middle class actually thinks, spends, saves, and responds to opportunity in today’s environment.

🔗 The full African Psychographics Report is now available for purchase: https://selar.com/7vf789hj8s

For organisations, investors, and founders engaging the South African and wider African market, this report provides actionable intelligence designed to support smarter capital allocation, product positioning, and long-term market strategy.

We are pleased to announce that Reconnected Group Africa will be featured in a LIVE broadcast interview on @cnbcafrica . Our Founder and Lead Strategist, Tshego Mosiane (@kebidoo_ ) will be on The Power Lunch: Southern Africa - this Tuesday at 12:30pm CAT

The interview will explore our latest research report in to African Consumer Psychographics - one of the most critical and misunderstood drivers of growth across African markets. While many organisations still approach Africa through surface level demographics and projections, our work focuses on the deeper forces that actually move markets: trust, aspiration, identity and community structures.

This conversation forms part of the @reconnected_ventures wider mandate to provide decision-grade intelligence for investors, businesses, corporations and government institutions operating in or expand in to African markets. Africa’s next wave of value creation will not be driven by capital alone. It will be driven by those who understand people first.

Africa’s consumer landscape is evolving faster than many global markets realise. To succeed on the continent in 2025 and beyond, brands and investors need more than demographic data — they need a clear understanding of the social, geographic, and psychographic drivers shaping modern African behaviour.

In Volume 1 of “Understanding the Modern African Consumer,” we break down key factors influencing today’s market, including:
• Digital adoption patterns unique to African consumers
• How the circular economy is reshaping spending and product life cycles
• Integration strategies used by major brands such as Netflix and Dickies
• The cultural, economic, and behavioural nuances that determine product acceptance
• Why traditional Western segmentation models often fail on the continent

At ReConnected Group Africa, we support organisations that want to enter or expand in African markets with grounded intelligence, research-driven insights, and practical strategy.

If your team is exploring African consumer markets — or needs deeper clarity to inform expansion, product development, or investment decisions — our research reports and advisory services can help.

Africa is entering a new investment era — shaped by currency shifts, regulatory changes, evolving payment systems, emerging stock exchanges, and increasingly fluid capital movement across the continent.

For global and African investors, understanding these dynamics is no longer optional. It is a strategic imperative.

In this short explainer, we unpack key factors investors must consider in 2025 and beyond, including:
• Currency volatility and hedging considerations
• Regulatory and compliance updates across key markets
• Payment rails, fintech infrastructure, and settlement systems
• Capital mobility between African regions
• The rise of regional stock exchanges and cross-listing trends
• Sector opportunities shaped by these shifts

If your organisation is exploring expansion into Africa — or already operating on the continent — our tailored intelligence reports, market entry strategy, and research subscriptions can support your decision-making.

African markets are evolving, yet many companies continue to make decisions based on outdated, incomplete, or isolated data points.

To address this gap, we developed WHERE THE SMART MONEY GOES: Vol I (2025–2030) — a comprehensive intelligence report that maps behavioural trends, demand shifts, and socio-economic risk indicators shaping business outcomes across the continent.

This explainer video summarises the report’s key findings and provides context for leaders, investors, and operators preparing for the next cycle of growth in Africa.
