Beks Ndlovu started his journey as a professional safari guide working for safari companies in Zimbabwe. However, he felt that the safaris being offered were sometimes too structured and stiff, not giving you the flexibility to venture out and explore the wonders of the African wilderness in different ways.

He branched off to start his own camp, a place where guides could be creative and imaginative. Somalisa Camp was born from this dream, the now award-winning camp started as a humble dream to bring guides together to teach guests about Africa.

The safari bug bit Beks and he decided this vision was bigger than just him, he gathered people with the same values to create something incredible. African Bush Camps, aims to be experts in Zimbabwe, Botswana and Zambia.

Be Better Founder and CEO Illana is a sustainable development thought leader, keynote speaker and connector. She believes that the way we speak about sustainability will change dramatically over the next few years so she is committed to pushing the needle on sustainability awareness for C-Suite, community and beyond. Identifying some 20 years ago a gap in genuine knowledge around sustainability she devoted her time to acquiring a deep understanding of the global issues and nuances. She now couples her 30 years in luxury niche marketing with her science knowledge to focus on the paradigm shift in behaviour required for our sustainable future.

Illana created Be Better to bridge the gap between science, business, communities and individuals. The biggest choke point in the adoption of sustainable practices is a lack of access to clear information. Be Better therefore provides fact based, open sourced, cited, content to inspire change. Under that umbrella, Be Better Business is an independent 3rd party agency that specialises in helping organisations to navigate the complexity in the various frameworks for sustainability reporting. Frameworks such as; ESG, SDG’s, GRI, BCorp, GRI and ISO. Working with future thinking organisations they build bespoke roadmaps with an eye on the future to change the narrative and define what best practice looks like (versus greenwashing). Be Better Business can design, write and sign off on 3rd party Sustainability Reports or execute any of the above mentioned frameworks.

Dee Gibson is a British Sri Lankan interior designer and hotelier living in London. In 2016 she bought a plot of land in Sri Lanka and built a luxury villa that she proudly describes as design led and has social impact. Dee was a silver winner for Most Inspiring Business Woman in a national UK award in 2020, and is a charity trustee, speaker and mentor.

 Dee is using her voice and skills to curate experience based holidays for adventurous, conscious travelers while also talking about matters close to her heart. She believes that without this kind of travel, we will all regress. As the world put up borders, it is key to break them down by encouraging people to travel MORE, touch some skin, leave behind a positive social footprint, give back to communities, and bring back interesting stories to tell. We are part of a global community.

Kalukanda House is a design led, ethical destination in the luxury market. Dee aims for a circular economy that is sustainably driven and commercial while supporting local communities. Being part of the transformative and regenerative design and travel movement is Dee’s focus as we come out of lockdown.
