Built in Johannesburg, for Africa.

Solveware is an innovation and problem-solving company based in South Africa. It works in two ways: as a strategic and execution partner to corporations and agencies, and as a venture builder that launches its own products into the market.

Resolution

noun

1. The act of solving a problem.

2. The sharpness of an image.

Our name, our identity and our method are built on the moment one becomes the other. The world arrives in motion. We bring it into focus.

To be Africa’s premier engine for innovation and resolution.

Where the continent’s most complex challenges are met with exact, engineered answers.

Built in Johannesburg, for the continent.

The problems we solve look like the cities they come from: ambitious, moving fast and stuck in places. Africa is the market we build for.

Four rules we work by.

Agnostic by design.

We start from the problem, never from a service. The tool is chosen last.

Built, not presented.

A solution counts once it is deployed. Our work shows working things.

Ahead of the brief.

We find the gap before anyone asks. Our ventures are the proof.

Exact.

One clear answer, stated plainly. Nothing decorative, nothing approximate.

The architectural DNA of the engine.

Two pillars hold up one result. Strategy and build sit in the same room from the first conversation, so the plan is always something that can be made.

Execution & Build

Multimedia designer and creative.

Uncompromising execution in any medium. The work gets done, and done properly.

How it should feel to work with us.

  • Decisive, not loud.

  • Exact, not rigid.

  • Ambitious, not arrogant.

  • Pan-African, not parochial.

  • Engineered, not cold.

One company. Two engines.

Solveware Partners solves problems for corporations and agencies. Solveware Ventures builds our own products for the market. Each engine makes the other sharper, and both are open to investors.

Bring us your bottleneck.

You give us your toughest challenge. We build the exact answer.
