Endeavor

I’m fortunate enough to have qualified into Endeavor, through my previous company, incuBeta and as a result, I’ve tapped into an amazing network of people that have really allowed SynthaSite to flourish. Amongst other great resource opportunities, we also received interns from Georgetown University (Washington D.C.), Harvard & MIT - the latter currently working in our offices. Being part of Endeavor has really opened up the doors for very high calibre interns, which small companies functioning in parts of the world like Africa, would rarely get the option of obtaining. In fact, SynthaSite is one of just 2 companies in South Africa, selected by MIT this year for it’s GLAB internship program.

The MIT folks are really helping us optimize the usability aspects within SynthaSite, along with other great insights across our business. These are skills extremely difficult to find in our local market, and as we open up offices in the USA, it’s making it a lot easier to identify what our future recruiting needs will be (please keep an eye on our website if you’re in the job market!).

Here is a great video from Endeavor at the 10 Year Gala held in New York in November that I had the pleasure of attending (Michael Buble entertained us!):
