Businessman and economic activist GG Alcock discusses the opportunities, pitfalls and key success factors for doing business in rural and township spaces, and introduces the inspiring, tenacious entrepreneurs of South Africas' informal economy.

GG Alcock was born in Msinga, then one of the most poverty-stricken and violent parts of KwaZulu-Natal. His activist parents, Neil and Creina Alcock, raised him and his brother in a mud hut with no running water, electricity or modern conveniences and they grew up like young Zulu boys, herding goats and hunting small animals. He has been a shebeen owner, political activist, community worker and African adventurer, and was the founder of Minanawe Marketing. He is the author of Kasinomic Revolution; Kasinomics, African informal economies and the people who inhabit them and Third World Child, born white, Zulu bred.
