ACCENTURE IS TRULY COMMITTED TO CONTRIBUTING TO SOUTH AFRICAS TRANSFORMATION AGENDA For 50 years, Accenture has been an ardent supporter of South Africa, its people and its business. We are firmly committed to fostering growth and adding value to the country through robust partnerships as we are keenly aware that any company’s success in any country is linked to the success of that country.. Our corporate citizenship initiatives are aimed at providing long-term sustainable solutions to alleviate some of the socio-economic challenges facing many South Africans, while finding ways to nurture the ICT environment. Our key strategic initiatives are centred around skills development, supplier and enterprise development, and preferential procurement.
