Following a series of well-considered acquisitions over the past two years, including that of ANEW Hotel Hluhluwe and the ANEW Resort Ingeli Forest on the KZN south coast, the innovative KwaZulu-Natal-based hotel group continues to expand.
With service and staff at the centre of all we do, the locally-owned, family-run business owns and manages all its properties and has adopted an organic growth strategy acquiring properties and management contracts in strategic locations.

ABOUT THIS TALK
An entertaining and yet powerfully meaningful presentation exploring a range of lessons from nature for the future of technology, business and our world. Nature’s forms inspire efficiencies beyond what we thought was possible. Nature’s processes are way ahead of the cutting edge of our technologies. Nature’s systems encompass the wisdom and genius of billions of years of experience. This presentation explores how we are learning from emulating nature’s forms, processes and systems for innovative responses to human challenges. There are literally as many ideas as there are organisms.
Biomimicry – “Bios” means life, “Mimicry” means imitate. Biomimicry is the practice of learning from and then emulating life’s genius. It is a design process, a problem-solving method, a sustainability ethos, a movement, a stance toward nature, and a new way of viewing and valuing biodiversity.
ABOUT CLAIRE JANISCH
Claire Janisch is the founding Director of BiomimicrySA and co-founder of the Biomimicry for Africa Foundation. As a Certified Biomimicry Professional, Claire spends her time exploring nature’s genius in diverse ecosystems, and shares this new way of viewing and valuing nature through biomimicry expeditions and coaching – teaching and training professionals, students and scholars.

Savannah Ingledew and Natalie Rohrs from St Anne’s Diocesan College competed at the Prince South African Junior Open Squash Tournament in Johannesburg from 26 – 28 July.

This is an outstanding achievement, made even more special since Savannah is currently only U14. She is quite possibly the youngest player to win this prestigious tournament!
