Classics on Turf made its way to Durban for an unforgettable evening where music, sport and innovation met in perfect harmony. 🎵⛳ Hosted at the beautiful Mount Edgecombe Country Club, guests enjoyed a unique blend of classical music and golfing culture, highlighted by a soulful performance from Msaki. The evening also featured an interactive AI-powered music experience, where guests selected prompts like mood, tempo and energy which were then transformed into an original classical composition performed live by the orchestra.Watch full video ➡️https://lnkd.in/dE8ANNfa It was a celebration of creativity, connection and collaboration, bringing together golfers, music lovers and innovators for a truly memorable night. Thank you to everyone who joined us in Durban for another incredible chapter of Classics on Turf. 💙💚 #TelkomIsIconic #PossibleBeginsHere #TelkomXClassicsOnTurf  

Watch how collective emotion becomes sound. Through our partnership with Classics on Turf, AI was used to translate real-time audience emotion into a live orchestral composition, generated and performed in the moment. This wasn’t just a tech showcase. It was a demonstration of how data, culture and connectivity can converge to create something deeply human. A shared experience shaped by collective energy, transformed into sound. One stage. One orchestra. One audience, co-creating in real time. When innovation is intentionally designed around people, it doesn’t just connect devices, it connects worlds. #TelkomIsIconic #PossibleBeginsHere #TelkomXClassicsOnTurf

Precision, performance and connection defined the Johannesburg and Cape Town editions of @ClassicsOnTurf, where the finesse of golf met the timeless power of classical music. Guests didn’t simply attend an event; they stepped into a curated experience of sport, sound and sophistication, truly witnessing possibility at play in every swing, every note and every shared moment. This year, that signature blend of elegance, music and world-class golfing heads to Durban, set against the lush greens of Mount Edgecombe Country Club and elevated by superstar Msaki. @ClassicsOnTurf happening on 27 February 2026 for a day where fairways meet symphonies and we once again witness possibility in play. #TelkomIsIconic #PossibleBeginsHere #TelkomXClassicsOnTurf

We’re excited to announce that Gugu Mthembu, Chief Marketing Officer at Telkom, has been invited back to the Cannes Lions stage, this time as Jury President for the Creative Business Transformation category at the 2026 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. Last year Gugu served as a Cannes jury member, amongst a few African voices contributing to the recognition of creativity that drives tangible business outcomes on the global stage. This year she returns with even greater responsibility and purpose. At Telkom, we believe creativity must do more than shine, it must solve, include and elevate communities. Gugu’s leadership exemplifies this belief: bringing human-centred strategy, bold insight, and African perspective to global creative benchmarking. We congratulate Gugu and look forward to the ideas and impact that emerge from her presidency. #CannesLions #CannesLions2026 #Telkom #BrandLeadership #AfricanExcellence #WomenInLeadership #CreativeTransformation

As the Matric Class of 2025 receives their results, we are reminded that these outcomes represent more than academic achievement. They reflect resilience, perseverance, and the promise of what’s still to come. As primary partner and sponsor of the Gauteng Department of Education’s Matric Results Announcements, hosted at Telkom Park, we were proud to celebrate Gauteng’s top achievers and an outstanding 89.06% pass rate. At Telkom, empowering young people has always been central to our purpose. We believe that access to connection, information, and opportunity plays a critical role in helping the youth not only succeed in school, but grow into confident contributors to South Africa’s future. Through our partnership with the Department of Education, we are proud to support and celebrate this important milestone in a way that recognises academic progress. Because success is not just about the results achieved today, but about the support systems that help young people navigate what comes next. To every learner receiving their results: we see your effort, your growth, and your potential. As you begin your new journey, Telkom remains committed to enabling the possibilities ahead.

What does it take to build a modern, resilient and future-ready South Africa? #SATNAC2025 has made one thing clear: progress happens when industry, academia and technology come together with a shared purpose. Over the past two days, we’ve witnessed powerful research, bold ideas and future-focused discussions, each one pointing to the same truth: innovation is the engine of Africa’s ascent. At Telkom, we don’t just talk about the future, we invest in it. From next-generation infrastructure to secure digital technologies and responsible AI, we remain committed to building the platforms that power a modern South Africa. SATNAC continues to be a space where we turn insight into action, and action into possibility. As we close out SATNAC 2025, the message is clear:South Africa’s digital future is bright, purposeful and collaborative. And Telkom will continue to champion the innovation that moves our country, and our continent, forward. #PossibleBeginsHere Telkom Group

On Day 1 of SATNAC 2025, our CMO, Gugu Mthembu, shared 4 key insights on humanising technology for real progress: 1️⃣ Start with real people: Design for affordability, language, accessibility and everyday realities. 2️⃣ Connectivity is the beginning, not the finish line: What matters is how it helps people learn, earn, heal and have a voice. 3️⃣ Innovation must reflect Africa: From multilingual AI to tools that uplift women, youth, SMEs and underserved communities. 4️⃣ Technology becomes powerful when it becomes personal: Built on trust, fairness, transparency and inclusion. As #SATNAC2025 continues, we’re asking: How do we ensure every step forward in technology becomes a step forward for every African?
