PERA is in its fifth year and still growing with a vision to create a vibrant, innovative and sustainable economy.

- Promote entrepreneurial conduct and resourcefulness amongst entrepreneurs
- Provide recognition to new and existing entrepreneurs with viable businesses that significantly contribute to job creation and the economy.
Last year, 333 Entrepreneurs entered the PERA competition for a chance to win their share of over R2 million in prize money.
