BBBEE Series: Ownership Structures

The BEE Chamber has become South Africa’s largest B-BBEE Practitioner member-based organisation.  They provide information, support, guidance, services, and software to BEE Practitioners who are the employees within a company responsible for managing a company’s B-BBEE Scorecard.

The BEE Chamber compliance specialists will provide SA Chamber delegates with updates on the B-BBEE Legislation and the latest interpretations from the B-BBEE Commission and the DTIC B-BBEE Policy Unit and day to day issues of relevant importance.
