Mxit Office Presentation and Office Tour
As you may have read in my previous post:
On Tuesday I joined a group of bloggers on a tour of Fire ID and Mxit, who are both based in the Stellenbosch Techno Park. The Tour was arranged byDave Duarte, known for amongst other things the hugely popular 27 Dinners
FireID are a hugely successful and proudly South African Startup mentored by Justin Stanford of Silicon Cape Fame.
Second on the list of Startups we visited was the now infamous Mxit.
Some interesting points about the Mxit Service I picked up:
- Currently has a 19Million User Base
- Approx. 20 000 registrations per day
- Has a vested interest in education, the launch of “Tixi” shows that Mxit is serious about this.
- Mxit Xchange, the new classified section has 1.7 Million subscribers
- Mxit Evo is the first PC Client that CEO Herman Heunis deems ”Decent”
