In 2024, we doubled down our efforts to develop and scale the Vumba Platform, which brings education into the hands of partner NGO's and the youth they serve. We were able to develop important featured for Vumba including individual skills tracking for students, an integrated dashboard for NGo's, and a seamless way to upload photos and evidence from the field into the main reporting capabilities. We remained engaged with our German based development team (CVC Solutions) to continue both the mobile and web apps. We applied for a Trademark for Vumba with the US Patent and Trademark office, while subsequently worked with the Pro Bono Partnership of Atlanta to make sure all legal requirements for ethical and secure data collection were in place. Overall, Vumba was piloted with 8 partners in the region, built with potential to scale into 2025.

In 2024, RHINO MAN launched on major streaming platforms across the world (Apple, Amazon, Youtube, Vimeo) hosted through Bitmax. After 10 years in the making, the film became available to global audiences to learn about our mission and the issues facing conservation in South Africa. To promote the launch of the film, the cast and crew of RHINO MAN traveled to South Africa, the United States, Italy and Canada for local and regional premieres. Having the cast from the movie added major value to audiences, bringing real life stories and education from the front lines of conservation into theatres, board rooms, and universities. All business for Rhino Man the Movie was carried out by the two independent subsidiary companies (GCC Ventures, and Rhino Man the Movie, LLC) that legally perform the worldwide business of licensing and sales for Rhino Man.
