Roy Douglas, CEO of ADvTECH, said, “ADvTECH has a proven track record of expanding educational opportunities and improving skills for people entering the job market or seeking to improve their employment prospects. IFC’s investment is the result of our collaboration to identify educational opportunities and potential partnerships across Africa. In addition to their investment capital, IFC gives ADvTECH access to an invaluable network of in-country experts and education officials along with private and state education providers at both schools and tertiary level. We have been working with IFC officials to identify quality local education partners to invest in, and which will benefit from ADvTECH’s proven pedagogical, management and education technology solutions.” Oumar Seydi, IFC Director for Eastern and Southern Africa, said, “Africa’s population is the fastest growing in the world requiring increased jobs and people with skills to fill them. IFC can help African companies with proven records at home expand into new markets. ADvTECH has proven that it can fill gaps in the markets by supporting excellent primary, secondary and tertiary education that will allow Africa’s workforce to meet the challenges of changing job markets in Africa and globally. We look forward to supporting ADvTECH strategy to expand access to quality education across Africa.” Douglas concluded by saying, “Working with IFC allows us to invest in new quality education provision that meets the growing needs of Africa’s young and expanding workforce while also reducing the risks inherent in expanding into new countries.” See www.advtech.co.za for more detail. 20 July 2016 Johannesburg Sponsor: Bridge Capital Advisors Proprietary Limited Date: 20/07/2016 01:55:00 Produced by the JSE SENS Department.
