Congratulations and Remarks from Bono property Group chairman:

Congratulations to our Group CEO “Mrs Patricia Tshitema” and the “Bono Property Group Team” on Their Win at the 2025 Nedbank Oliver Top Empowerment Awards last night. It is with immense pride and admiration that we celebrate our Group CEO and the entire team at BPG team for this prestigious recognition at the 2025 Nedbank Oliver Top Empowerment Awards — South Africa’s leading platform honouring transformation, empowerment, and inclusive excellence in business.
Being recognised among the Top Empowered Companies and Leaders is no small feat. It reflects the Group’s unwavering commitment to creating meaningful change through visionary leadership, impactful strategies, and a deep-rooted belief in uplifting communities through every project we undertake through the company and Opal students foundation.

This year’s theme, “Celebrating Transformation Excellence”, speaks directly to the ethos and values that Bono Property Group stands for. Under the exceptional leadership of our Group CEO the organisation continues to break barriers, build new bridges, and redefine empowerment beyond compliance — ensuring it is embedded in everything we do.
To Group CEO “Patricia Tshitema “— your leadership is bold, compassionate, and driven by purpose. Your ability to inspire, transform and lead with integrity is the foundation of this success. This award is a testament to your dedication to excellence and empowerment at the highest level.

To the Bono Property Group team — congratulations on this monumental achievement. Your resilience, creativity, and collaborative spirit continue to push boundaries and uplift our nation.
And to our valued Opal Students — this is your victory as well. By choosing to stay at Opal Student Accommodation, you’ve become part of something greater. You are not just residents — you are the heartbeat of our transformation journey. All these awards are because of you. You are winners by association. We salute you.
As we celebrate this milestone, we are reminded that true empowerment is not an event, but a way of life. We remain committed to building a better, more inclusive South Africa — one project, one person, one opportunity at a time.

In conclusion, last but by no means least, we extend our deepest gratitude to our funding partners — the Gauteng Partnership Fund (GPF), Futuregrowth Asset Management, and Fedgroup — as well as to all our special investors across our various projects. Thank you for believing in our vision and enabling it to unfold into the success we celebrate today. Your partnership has been the cornerstone of our journey.

Here’s to continued growth, shared success, and a future built on empowerment.
