Partner Programme

Grow With Us. Build With Us.

1ICT is building a curated network of capable South African SMEs to deliver alongside us — starting with the 2030 by 2030 AI Digital Labs Initiative, and extending into corporate managed services, enterprise projects, and public sector delivery opportunities. Recruit once, work together on many.

Why Partner With 1ICT

2030 by 2030 flagship

Locally preferred delivery partner opportunity (up to 3-year terms) as we roll out AI Digital Labs across South African public high schools.

Enterprise & Supplier Development pipeline

Access to 1ICT's corporate client work, subcontracting flow, and structured ED / SD support.

A programme, not a once-off

Vetted partners join a governed network with agreed pricing frameworks, quality standards, and ongoing work occasions.

Which route is yours?

Implementation partners and funders are different

SME & implementation partners

You install, cable, connect, train or support on the ground. This is the right page — complete the Expression of Interest below to join the vetted network.

Funders, corporates & CSI teams

If you want to fund a lab through CSI, ESD or B-BBEE budgets rather than deliver work, the 2030 by 2030 funding pathways page is the better starting point.
