Our Journey in Financial Education
From a small consulting practice to South Africa's leading platform for valuation expertise – discover how we've shaped the future of financial analysis education since 2019.
The Foundation Years
What started as weekend workshops in a Johannesburg community center has grown into something we never imagined. Thessa Mabunda, fresh from her corporate finance role, noticed a gap – brilliant minds struggling with practical valuation applications.
- First cohort of 12 finance professionals
- Focus on DCF modeling and comparable analysis
- Weekend workshops in Johannesburg
- 100% participant satisfaction in initial programs
Digital Transformation
The pandemic pushed us online, but it opened doors we hadn't expected. Suddenly, we were reaching analysts in Cape Town, Durban, and smaller cities across South Africa. Our digital platform launched with interactive case studies based on real JSE-listed companies.
- Platform launch with 200+ enrolled students
- Partnership with 8 South African universities
- Interactive case studies featuring local companies
- Monthly webinar series began
Recognition and Growth
Last year brought validation we hadn't sought but deeply appreciated. The South African Institute of Financial Markets recognized our curriculum, and major investment firms began recommending our programs to their junior analysts.
- SAIFM curriculum accreditation received
- Over 1,200 professionals completed programs
- Corporate training contracts with major firms
- Advanced options pricing module launched
Where We're Headed
The next chapter isn't just about growth – it's about depth. We're developing specialized tracks for different sectors of the South African economy, from mining valuations to fintech assessments. By mid-2025, we'll launch our mentorship program, connecting experienced professionals with emerging analysts across the country.
