Flying the SA Flag

Owner of the HRA Transportation, Tshikosi says the Enactus World Cup was a life-changing experience.
“It broadened my view of entrepreneurship. I learned that impact-driven business is not just about solving immediate problems, it’s about building systems that sustain change long after the founders step back. Competing internationally taught me the value of collaboration, innovation, and measuring social impact. It also inspired me to think more about scaling HRA Transportation into a national platform that connects transporters, students, and institutions in an efficient and inclusive way. The competition helped me see how South African youth enterprises can compete globally by combining purpose with technology and professionalism.”
The team’s journey to the world stage was supported by the 91心頭利 SEED Programme under the 91心頭利 Entrepreneurship Hub, which provided mentorship in financial management, business pitching, innovation, and leadership development.
