Our expertise comes from more than twenty years experience of nurturing and growing African-owned companies. In 2019 Siyakha won the title of the Best Transformation Consulting Firm Of The year, and in 2018 CEO Dionne Kerr was named one of the top twenty-five African Women In Leadership.

Siyakha Africa builds on this impressive reputation and a proven track record of excellence in promoting and advising on Black Economic Empowerment. It is uniquely placed to link Africa’s emerging entrepreneurial talent and new opportunities with global investors.

Our UK Office is headed by Peter Burdin, the former BBC Africa Editor who has worked extensively across the continent and has advised a range of companies seeking to enter the African market.

As a former Senior Advisor to Education Sub Saharan Africa (ESSA) and a Board member of the African Leadership University and the Policy Centre for African Peoples, Peter brings a depth of knowledge and experience to investors seeking to connect with the continent.

He also serves on the Board of Trustees of the UK-South Africa Trust and is an Ambassador for the Desmond Tutu Foundation UK.

Peter’s role is to see Siyakha Africa become the company of choice for investors seeking to engage with the continent.
