THE FUSE

There is a particular kind of businessman that South Africa produces in small numbers: the kind who spent years being told the system was not built for him and responded by building his own. Sandile Donald Muziwenkosi Zungu is that kind of businessman. He grew up in Umlazi Township in Durban, one of apartheid's most deliberately disadvantaged urban environments, and emerged from it carrying two things that would define everything that followed: an engineering degree from the University of Cape Town and an absolute refusal to think small.
