Accelerate Cape Town

Accelerate Cape Town is a business think tank and a catalyst in bringing together stakeholders in the Cape Town region to develop and implement a long-term vision for sustainable, inclusive economic growth.

The organisation was started by a group of business leaders brought together by a common concern over the pace and direction of change in the Cape. They agreed that a common long-term vision and future strategy were needed for the region, and that “big business” should play a leading role in developing and implementing them.

Accelerate Cape Town works on mobilising the combined expertise, influence and enthusiasm of its members to deliver long term socio-economic growth for the Cape region.

The key aims of Accelerate Cape Town are to:

accelerate economic growth in the city and the region
promote the city and region as a prime locality for investment
effectively represent the views of big business
establish a vibrant network of leaders in business, government, education and other stakeholders
set up and maintain constructive partnerships.

Our vision stems from the conclusion reached in our Vision 2030 programme.

Vision 2030 is business’s contribution to the thinking on how to create sustainable growth and prosperity for all in the Cape Town city region, developing a more equal and just society in environmentally sensitive ways.

Our vision is to transform the Cape Town City Region into Africa’s Global City, a city of inspiration and innovation.
