The Tech Landscape in Johannesburg

The 2018 Ventureburn Tech Start-up Survey found that Gauteng is currently home to 55% of the tech start-ups in South Africa. Many of these young companies require coders with industry-aligned knowledge and skills.

The second greatest challenge faced by start-ups is a lack of skilled technical staff. This reflects the critical skills gap and developer shortage in Johannesburg and South Africa as a whole.

At HyperionDev, we aim to close the gap and empower young individuals to live up to their coding potential.
