This year’s WEF theme, “Collaboration in the Intelligent Age,” aligns seamlessly with South Africa’s focus on fostering innovation-driven solutions and inclusive growth.

“WEF 2025 is particularly significant for us,” said Godongwana. “It allows us to amplify our G20 presidency and position South Africa as a leader in addressing global challenges.”

Government-Business Collaboration for Global Impact

Godongwana stressed the importance of unity between government and the private sector in delivering a cohesive message at WEF.

“It is essential that we align our key messages to showcase our country’s strengths, address misconceptions, and advance our collective priorities,” he stated.

Key points of focus for the delegation will include:

  1. Addressing Economic Challenges: Presenting South Africa’s strategies to combat unemployment, poverty, and inequality.
  2. Showcasing Investment Opportunities: Highlighting sectors primed for growth, including renewable energy, digital innovation, and infrastructure.
  3. Promoting Global Collaboration: Advocating for stronger partnerships to tackle pressing global issues like climate change and inequality.

A Year of Opportunity for South Africa

As South Africa prepares to host the G20 Leaders’ Summit later this year, the WEF will serve as a critical precursor to establish its credibility and influence on the global stage.

“With resilience and collaboration, we can present South Africa as a land of opportunity and a champion of shared prosperity,” concluded Godongwana.

South Africa’s participation in WEF 2025 is a pivotal moment to reshape its global narrative, strengthen partnerships, and position the nation as a leader in driving economic transformation and global sustainability.

This unified effort between government and business aims to leave an indelible mark, ensuring that South Africa remains a significant player on the world stage.
