About the Incubator

Savant offers a hands-on support to early stage entrepreneurs to help you to build business, prove concepts, raise funds and take your technology to the next level.

Value Proposition

Savant brings unrivalled technology commercialisation know-how and experience to the South African start-up landscape and offers bespoke commercialisation support to hardware technology inventors through long term, risk-based partnerships. Inventors stand to gain a streamlined journey from minimum viable product development to early market traction, both locally and internationally. Investors stand to gain early access to a pipeline of professionally de-risked technology companies to invest in.

Savant has assisted 29 companies in raising in excess of R200mn in funding. These companies have employed 300+ people and have generated more than R 3.5bn in revenue. Most of the companies that we have worked with have successfully raised finance (or are in the process of doing so) and are either in the commercialisation process or have successfully launched onto the local and global markets. Examples of successful Savant companies include Snuza, Leatt, and Veggie Crisp.
