"Tech industry leaders who chose to build Africa's digital future rather than manage it from the outside."
Baxolile Mabinya & Lubabalo Dyantyi
Co-Founders
Deviare. Latin for deviate.
To depart from an established course. Our founders left blue-chip executive careers to build what Africa's digital future actually demands - capability, not consumption.
Baxolile Mabinya - Masters in Computer Science, MBA, BCom Economics. 30+ years in ICT and digital strategy. Presidential 4IR Commissioner.
Lubabalo Dyantyi - BCom Economics. 25+ years leading public sector and enterprise digital transformation. Certified Coach.
Deviare is shaping the future - not tomorrow, not someday, but right now. Future Made Here.
Four integrated businesses. One unified mission.
An outcomes-based ecosystem where enterprise corporates sponsor programmes that advance social impact and B-BBEE goals - and where individuals and governments find a single trusted partner for digital capability.

Built by Africans for Africa
Three convictions guide every programme, platform and partnership we deliver.
Skills Before Infrastructure
Africa's leap will be powered by capable people first - not by waiting for perfect infrastructure to arrive.
Capability Before Capital
We build organisational capability so digital investment translates into real business value, not stranded technology.
Local Innovation & Sovereignty
African problems solved by African talent on African terms - building technology sovereignty for the continent.
A multidisciplinary team built to deliver at scale
