The South Africa Ideas Festival (SAIF) is back for the 2018 edition! SAIF is a Local Ideas Festival (LIF) held in South Africa and run by the Bezos Scholars from the African Leadership Academy, South Africa. It is a 3-day festival which brings together innovative and passionate African youths from around Africa to develop and showcase their BIG Ideas for sustainable impact. The South African Ideas Festival has a line-up of great programs, experiential and lectures that will help develop the next generation of African entrepreneurs. Every year the program changes, however, the end result is the same. This year, we've increased the space for applicants and broadened the curriculum to cover a wider range of topics in the field of entrepreneurship across sectors and industries.
