SACCI Convention
Stratagem Training Services attends the SACCI convention and expo.
On Tuesday 4th October Dan Garden and Angie Schroeder of Stratagem Training Services set up their SME stand at the SACCI convention in order to make their awareness known to all in attendance at the convention.
On display were our IFC Business Edge™ banner and brochures as well as Stratagem’s Bookkeeping division, SMME development courses and Kolbe Conative Index.
“The convention was focussed on a discussion on how to realise business opportunities and equip the economy to turn the tide on economic stagnation and job creation” Mr Chose Choeu, President of SACCI. Amongst the list of key speakers at the convention we had the privilege of listening to: Mr Dennis Dykes, Chief Economist, Nedbank Group, Mr Peter Draper, Senior Research Fellow, SAIIA, Mr Sello Mosai Executive Manager, Productivity SA, Mr Carlman Moyo, Regional Director – Sub-Saharan Africa, DuPont de Nemours Africa and Mr Richard Pike, CEO, Adcorp Holdings.
This experience left us feeling positive about how we as SME’s in South Africa can influence the South African economy and bring about positive change with directed leadership and motivation.

I urge those of you who form part of an SME to contact us and see how we can help you!

Thank you to SACCI for hosting such a successful event.
