SUMMARY:The Fast Track to South African Business Success
DESCRIPTION:The Fast Track to South African Business Success Networking session and panel to capitalize on Brand South Africa’s NASCAR collaboration at Atlanta Motor Speedway \n\n\n\nAfrica’s largest economy is open for investment\, tourism and trade\, and the race is on to engage with the continent of the future.  \n\n\n\nAtlanta is in pole position when it comes to South Africa\, thanks to shared civil-rights heritage\, strong air links\, university collaborations and a growing web of commercial and creative connections — all emphasized in the ongoing Atlanta Phambili initiative.  \n\n\n\nStill\, for the uninitiated\, South Africa may seem dauntingly distant. That’s why Brand South Africa is bringing top brands across the Atlantic for a high-octane introduction to what makes the land of braais and biltong both a captivating travel destination and an attractive commercial opportunity.  \n\n\n\nDuring the June 27 Focused Health 250\, NASCAR XFinity Series race at Echo Park Speedway (Atlanta Motor Speedway)\, the yellow South Africa race car\, decked out in flag colors\, will showcase key players from a variety of industries\, inviting potential partners from the Southeast U.S. to take a closer look at the rainbow nation.  \n\n\n\nOn race day\, Global Atlanta\, celebrity chef and restaurateur Lorna Maseko\, Team South Africa Racing and Brand South Africa are partnering to give Atlantans a taste of South African commerce and culture through a panel discussion and afternoon networking session featuring the car’s logo partners and Atlanta-based companies already on the fast-track to South African success.  \n\n\n\nFeatured Car Sponsors\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBrand South AfricaOfficial Custodian of South Africa’s Nation Brand\nBrand South Africa is the official marketing agency of South Africa\, with a mandate to build the country’s brand reputation\, in order to improve its global competitiveness. Brand South Africa’s primary focus is to develop and implement proactive\, coordinated marketing and communications reputation management strategies for South Africa. Our main objective is to market South Africa to both domestic and international audiences\, positioning South Africa as a competitive investment destination\, and inspiring and instilling active citizenship amongst South Africans. \n\n\n\nBrand South Africa was established in August 2002 to help create a positive and compelling brand image for South Africa. At that time the world was unsure what to think of South Africa\, with many different messages being sent by various sources. This did very little to build the country’s brand and it was evident that to attract tourism and investment there was a need to coordinate marketing initiatives to make them more effective. \n\n\n\nThis led to the creation of Brand South Africa\, whose main objective is to market South Africa. \n\n\n\nThere are many benefits to having a consolidated brand image\, with the most important being a consistent Brand South Africa message to create strategic advantages in terms of trade and tourism for the country in an increasingly competitive marketplace. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSuperformanceLuxury Racing Replicas\nSuperformance LLC is a distributor for complete\, “Rolling Chassis” replica and continuation race cars of the 1960’s.

We have earned our reputation with our attention to detail\, quality\, craftsmanship\, fit\, finish and customer service. \n\n\n\nSuperformance LLC has a long standing relationship and build contract with Hi-Tech Automotive who is the world’s largest specialty car production facility. Together Superformance and Hi-Tech have produced and distributed more than 4000 rolling chassis worldwide. \n\n\n\nThe Superformance rolling chassis is the most sought after continuation car in the United States and is recognized in the industry as the leader in 1960’s racing legends reproduction cars. All Superformance rolling chassis are factory built and assembled utilizing all “NEW” parts. \n\n\n\nMeticulous attention to detail is evident throughout and is noted in the body fitment\, paint and the smallest aspect of our chassis. Superformance products are aesthetically and dimensionally correct and are engineered in the image of the classic sports car of yester year. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTeam South Africa Racing\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStormberg FoodsProducers & Suppliers of Superior Quality Air Dried Snacks\nFrom its home in South Africa to the States of America\, Stormberg Foods shares a passion for natural\, air-dried beef snacks.

SUMMARY:Samba to Strategy: Prioritizing Portuguese to Grow Georgia's Brazilian Trade and Education Ties
DESCRIPTION:In Brazil\, samba isn’t just a dance—it’s a cultural rhythm that blends Portuguese language and African roots\, uniting a nation shaped by monarchy\, colonialism\, and centuries of diversity. \n\n\n\nA giant in geography\, economy\, and population\, Brazil is as complex as it is vibrant—from Afro-Brazilian traditions in the north to European influences in the south; from indigenous Amazon tribes to bustling cities like São Paulo and Rio. Yet through it all\, Portuguese is the thread that binds. \n\n\n\nDespite Brazil’s global clout\, Portuguese remains under-taught in the U.S.\, often overshadowed by Spanish. That oversight means missing out—not just on connections across Lusophone markets from Europe to Africa and Asia—but also on building stronger business ties with Brazilian investors increasingly looking beyond Miami to places like Georgia. \n\n\n\nJoin Global Atlanta\, the Brazilian-American Chamber of Commerce\, and the Atlanta Global Studies Center at the offices of the Consulate General of Brazil for a dynamic discussion on why Portuguese matters—culturally\, commercially\, and strategically—for Georgia’s global future. \n\n\n\nIn Partnership With:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n3:45-4:pm | Registration 4pm-5pm | Future of Global Education – Perspectives from Brazilian Scholars5pm – 5:30pm | Networking Break + Refreshments + Business Panel Registration5:30pm – 5:45pm | Remarks + Cultural Performance 5:45 – 6:30pm | Business Panel + Discussion7pm | Q&A + Networking + Dismissal  \n\n\n\nLanguage & Education Panelists\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Evaristo Fernando DoriaRobinson College of Business\, Georgia State University\nDr. Evaristo Doria is an award-winning educator at Georgia State University’s J.

SUMMARY:Care in Architecture and Design: A Talk at Atlanta Design Festival
DESCRIPTION:In 2023\, architects and designers Aurélia Martin and Mathilde Van Steenkiste founded Les Grandes\, a Paris-based studio dedicated to issues at the intersection of architecture\, disability\, and mental health. Their practice combines research\, experimentation\, and design to rethink how spaces can care for both their occupants and their environments\, contributing to a more inclusive society. \n\n\n\nAs part of the Atlanta Design Festival’s Creative Futures Conference\, Martin and Van Steenkiste will present their talk “Care in Architecture and Design: From the Circular Economy to Disability.” Drawing on projects developed in France and abroad\, they will discuss their approach as practitioners committed to integrating care into architectural thinking. \n\n\n\nTheir transatlantic exploration began in 2024\, when they spent three months in the United States studying innovative models of senior housing through the AIA’s Delano & Aldrich/Emerson grant. This research will culminate in a book and exhibition planned for 2026. \n\n\n\nIn 2025\, the duo returns to the U.S. as Villa Albertine Atlanta residents with Quilt and Care\, a project at the crossroads of healthcare research\, textile design\, and autism studies. During their October residency\, they will collaborate with local partners to imagine how fabrics and designed objects can become tools for care and connection. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore Info
