In this episode, we cover:
How COVID-19 permanently changed the way executives work and holiday
Why Oceans Umhlanga is the largest private-sector development in the southern hemisphere
The Radisson Blu Umhlanga capital raise and what it signals for institutional investor confidence in KZN
Black economic empowerment and transformation on a R4.3bn development site

Edison Corp's expansion into Nigeria and lessons from the "warm current economy"
Mpono's advice to young South Africans entering the property and investment world
