            <description><![CDATA[By Warren Alberts, Chief Executive Officer at VAS-X It’s crazy to think that eSIMs have been around for over a decade and yet this technology is really only gathering momentum now. This is, in large part, because several major devices that have been launched this year (the iPhone 14-17, Google’s Pixel 10 series and the Samsung Galaxy S26 range, all in selected markets) are going eSIM-only. With embedded SIM technology, your SIM card is built directly into the device, so there’s no physical SIM tray and you no longer need to fiddle with a tiny but powerful piece of plastic when switching devices, numbers or mobile providers.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Bulky, one-size-fits-all residential lease agreements fuel disputes - not because the law is unclear, but because the contracts are. To address this, rental property management platform Reos has partnered with SBL Incorporated, a law firm specialising in property law, to launch LeaseConsole: an attorney-backed platform that replaces generic lease templates with precise, plain-language agreements tailored to each tenancy. "The magic of LeaseConsole is in the combination of legal expertise and ...]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Africa’s next energy breakthrough may not come from building more power stations alone, but from strengthening the electricity networks that connect countries and enable power to flow across borders. As electricity demand rises and industrialisation accelerates, regional power pools are emerging as critical drivers of energy security, enabling countries to share resources, improve supply reliability and create broader markets for electricity producers.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[If you've ever connected your phone to your car, asked the voice assistant to find the nearest petrol station, or used an app to lock your vehicle from across the parking lot, you've already shared information with your car. Modern vehicles are becoming connected devices on wheels. Apps, location services, voice assistants, cameras, sensors, and remote controls all generate and store data. Most motorists never think about it. But understanding what your car knows, who can see it, and how it might help you can make you a more informed, and better protected, driver.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Artificial intelligence, digital courts, declining institutional trust and changing skills could fundamentally reshape South Africa’s legal and justice system over the next decade, said Ian Andrews, Chief Executive Officer LexisNexis Southern and Eastern Africa. “Law, and the rule of law, is heading into what could be one of its most consequential periods of change in decades,” said Andrews. “Artificial intelligence may be dominating conversations about the future of work, but technology is only one of several forces that could fundamentally change how South Africans access justice.”]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[On a mine, people often only think about connectivity once the signal starts dropping. The signal may be fine around offices and surface operations, then weaken or disappear underground or further out on site. Utilities have a different version of the problem. Their infrastructure spans such large areas that keeping a constant eye on it can be difficult. The operation cannot simply lose visibility because the signal changes. Teams still need to stay in contact with people in the field, while equipment data and alerts must keep reaching those responsible for the response. This is why Sentiv approaches critical infrastructure and field operations as connected environments rather than collections of individual devices.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[After many years of supporting Saratoga Fruit Estate’s material-handling fleet with traditional lead-acid battery maintenance, Industrial Power (IP), a division of CFAO Equipment, has helped the agricultural operation take the next step in efficiency with a transition to lithium-ion technology. The move addresses a significant challenge facing the Fruit Estate. The Estate’s lead-acid forklift batteries were deteriorating during the approximately three-month off-peak season when the equipment was not in use. Batteries would sulphate and lose performance, often requiring costly repairs before the start of the next peak season.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[For years, South Africa’s power crisis impacted nearly every part of daily life—darkening homes, disrupting essential services, constraining businesses, and holding back economic growth. In 2023 alone, power outages cut GDP by 2% and cost 500,000 jobs. At the same time, the COVID-19 pandemic exposed another critical vulnerability: Africa’s heavy dependence on imported vaccines and the risks communities face when global supply chains break down.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[An air compressor is often one of the most important pieces of equipment in an industrial plant. It takes atmospheric air, compresses it and supplies it at the pressure required for production. Compressed air is used in almost every industry, from workshops and garages to manufacturing plants, mines and processing facilities. In many operations, it is not simply another utility. It is part of the production process. When the air supply is interrupted, the effect can be immediate — machines can stop, processes can be delayed and production can be lost.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Vertiv (NYSE: VRT), a global leader in critical digital infrastructure, today announced the 2.3 MW Vertiv™ CoolChip coolant distribution unit (CDU) model has qualified as a NVIDIA DSX Ready CDU. The 2.3 MW CDU model is the first CDU to qualify specifically as NVIDIA DSX Ready. Vertiv is among the initial providers of qualified CDU solutions in the NVIDIA DSX Ready programme, which enables AI factory builders to identify specific power and cooling products that meet applicable NVIDIA DSX requirements.  “The scale of AI deployment is forcing a more integrated approach to data centre infrastructure,” said Scott Armul, Chief Product and Technology Officer of Vertiv. “Compute, power and cooling decisions can no longer be made independently. A constraint on any one of those systems can limit the performance and productive capacity of the entire facility. NVIDIA DSX Ready gives customers a more consistent basis for evaluating critical infrastructure within that larger design.”]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[A carbon credit may be traded as a single unit, but its value is shaped long before it reaches a buyer. Decisions about project ownership, finance, data, verification and benefit-sharing determine who participates, who carries the risk and who ultimately benefits. As new regulations and international partnerships expand market access, these questions are becoming increasingly important across Africa. They will be central to the Carbon Markets Africa Summit (CMAS) 2026, taking place from 13 to 15 October at the Kigali Convention Centre in Rwanda. The summit will convene African governments, project developers, investors, buyers and technical experts involved in decisions across the carbon-market value chain.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Motorists are now paying R3.33 more for every litre of 95 petrol. The cost of 93 petrol has risen by R3.12 a litre. More significant for freight and logistics, diesel prices have increased by R2.84 a litre for 0.05% sulphur diesel and R3.24 for 0.005% sulphur diesel. The increase pushes South Africa’s petrol prices to a record high at a time when they are already putting pressure on South African inflation. Statistics South Africa reports that fuel prices had increased by 34.3% year-on-year in June 2026, with diesel prices up 50.8% and petrol prices up 31.7% over the same period. Transport was the largest contributor to the monthly and annual changes in the CPI at the time, Stats SA noted.]]></description>
