All about the brand

March equals #BrandManagerMonth at Bizcommunity and we kick things off in Lifestyle with an in-depth interview with Jana Hamman of innovative concept studio Jana + Koos.

In fact we're all about the in-depth interviews this week as we also gets insights from Paintings for Ants artist Lorraine Loots, Die Ontwaking producer, writer and director Johnny Breedt and curator of Johannesburg's Work Shop New Town Trevyn McGowan.

Our new competitions give you the chance to win tickets to Jungle at Kirstenbosch, the Cape Town Lionel Ritchie concert, and the forthcoming Kirstenbosch Summer Sunset Concert featuring Zebra & Giraffe and Monark!
