LOCAL TECH FIRM SECURES PROUDLY SA NOD FOR SAFETY APP

Homegrown multimedia and IT firm Moepi has officially joined the ranks of the nation’s most trusted brands after receiving accreditation from Proudly South African. The certification specifically highlights the company’s flagship digital platform, Tekete SafeSpace, as a premier local solution for school safety.

The application serves as a confidential bridge between learners and educators, providing a secure channel to report bullying, harassment, and safety concerns. By allowing students to speak out without fear of exposure, the platform aims to dismantle the culture of silence that often surrounds school-based incidents.

“This approval is more than a badge; it’s a validation of local innovation serving a local need,” the company stated. To earn the Proudly SA seal, Moepi had to demonstrate a commitment to high-quality standards and local labor, ensuring that the technology protecting South African students is built by South African hands.

As schools nationwide seek more effective ways to manage student welfare, Tekete SafeSpace offers a structured monitoring system that ensures every report is tracked and addressed. With the official “buy local” endorsement, Moepi is now positioned to roll out the system to a broader network of educational institutions, moving the country one step closer to a digitally-secured, safer learning environment.
