On this episode of the Social Impact Show with Sam Marshall, we spotlight Edna Sathakga Montse, Group Chief Transformation and Sustainability Officer at African Bank.
From launching the Women Entrepreneurship Development Programme in Cape Town, to supporting sanitary drives, community food gardens, and preparing for a business summit aimed at empowering SMEs—African Bank is showing what it really means to back entrepreneurs.
Edna takes us behind the scenes of:
✨ How African Bank’s uniforms ended up on global runways in Paris & Milan
✨ Why their 50-year legacy is rooted in audacity, inclusion, and social impact
✨ How communities co-build schools for ownership, skills transfer & dignity
✨ Their bold youth transformation programme that makes opportunities truly accessible
✨ Why inclusion, innovation, and social capital remain central to transformation in 2025
If you’ve only known African Bank as a financial brand, this conversation will change the way you see its role in shaping South Africa’s future.
