Samantha Mandigora has recently taken on the part-time task of coordinating our young alumni chapters in the aftermath of the successful visit of VC Kgethi Phakeng to Ottawa and Toronto.  The response to the VC’s visit from younger alumni was overwhelming, and we decided to act on the momentum and energise the connections from the visit. 

Sam, herself a UCT alum, has been in Toronto for the past 3 years and has already built up a strong professional network within the Canada-Africa Chamber of Business.  She feels strongly about the importance of highlighting the skillset and expertise of UCT’s alumni in Canada and the need to continue to build relationships and networks with both individuals and organizations.

Sam will also be connecting with our chapter in Ottawa to brainstorm ideas and will be coordinating with our Toronto team to put meaningful networking events together.  Watch this space!
