    Who we are

    We're building a global online platform and community connecting top global talent, leaders and influencers, with exciting and distinctive opportunities across the African Continent. Individuals and organisations in over 150 countries are using Movemeback to discover unique, high-impact career opportunities, build the next set of African businesses and social solutions, invest in high potential initiatives, collaborate on projects, and access invaluable insights and resources for relocating and navigating the African Continent. Some liken us to a cross between the Linkedin, Tinder (connecting people) and Airbnb for opportunities.

    Why we exist

    Through the development of our community and collaboration between our members, our long-term vision is to collectively shape and accelerate Africa's social and economic development. We expect to measure our success in terms of measurable GDP growth, job creation and intra-continental trade. And remember, Africa is just the start!

    Why us why now

    We are obsessed with adopting the very latest in development methodology, design, big data and intelligent computing to solve some of the world’s largest unsolved problems around connecting people and forming meaningful connections for mutual and broader macro-economic benefit. In summary, we're bringing together all things great about the world; technology, people and the powers that be to drive positive change!
