FORGE strives to showcase thriving faith-infused entrepreneurial ecosystems across different cultures, and this year we're heading to Cape Town, South Africa.Commonly known as the 'Mother City', famous for its Table Mountain, gardens, beaches, food, wine and outdoor lifestyle, Cape Town is city of contrasts.
Beyond its reputation as one of top tourist destinations and world-class infrastructure there remains the realities of vast socio-economic inequality experienced by the majority of South Africans. However, these challenges have given rise to a society of faith-based entrepreneurs, growing ecosystems focused on social and environmental impact, and taking hands in the true sense of Ubuntu* to developing innovative solutions that provide hope, resilience, and opportunities for the nation.
Our host partners, Ziwani, Relativ, and Thirdway Capital are proud to welcome you to Cape Town, a city that embodies FORGE's heart: hope rising from challenge, beauty emerging from struggle, and entrepreneurs reimagining redemptive solutions for their communities.
*UBUNTU: an African and deeply Kingdom philosophy often summarized as "I am because you are."
"Ubuntu does not mean that people should not address themselves. The question is: are you going to do so to enable the community around you?"
- Nelson Mandela
“Can you imagine thriving ecosystems of faith-driven entrepreneurs in every country in the world? The least reached, most difficult places. Organizations united around the globe, sharing knowledge and tools. Capital providers deploying billions of dollars into the markets that need it most. Do you believe it is possible? Let’s dream bigger.”
FORGE is rooted in values of love, unity, humility, & trust. Participants come together to think, pray, and dream how to bring economic, social, and spiritual renewal to our communities through enterprise development.
