BACKGROUND
As the world faces the devastating consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic, the tourism
sector is among those severely affected. Travel is down, fear is up and the future is uncertain.
Tourism in South Africa can be a platform for overcoming the economic challenges of the

elements in overcoming global challenges.
There are many ways in which to rebuild the South African tourism industry. One way would
be to encourage and support young entrepreneurs to start their own businesses (start-ups).
The 2021 PAT focuses on how you, as a young entrepreneur can play a role to Reignite,
Rejuvenate, Rebuild and Reposition South Africa's tourism industry. Through collaboration
(working together), start-ups and innovative tourism projects will contribute to transformation
in the tourism sector.

What is a start-up?

A start-up is a young company with a limited budget, founded by one or more entrepreneurs to
develop a unique product or service. Start-ups use their own funding and also source (get)
additional funding from public and private investors.

Examples of start-ups: Uber, Airbnb, etc. Innovative start-ups are changing the way in which
we travel, how we plan our trip, where we stay, how we move around, what we do, what we
read and what we eat.
