What our alumni say
Ayoub Berrada
Founder & CEO, Daftar
I was coached by Maloba Consulting throughout the Design Thinking part of my project. They helped me define customer needs in the clearest way by pushing me to go into the field. I therefore carried out the first 3 stages of design thinking with him, namely empathy, the definition of the user's point of view, as well as ideation. Daniel's help was invaluable to me to prototype my solution.
Dr. Obvious Mapiye
Founder & CEO, LMDS
Daniel's business coaching and mentorship support helped me understand my business idea better. Besides having deep industry knowledge and practical insights into how to build a successful business, he is very personable and easy to talk to. He was one of the esteemed business trainers on the ResNova program, which provided me with practical tools, strategies, and hands-on exercises that equipped me with the skills to build a successful business.
Evans Nkomo
Co-founder, E-HHike
During our participation in RESNOVA, we had the privilege of engaging in a one-on-one consultation with Daniel Maloba, and we cannot overstate the significance of this session in shaping our e-HHiKe as founders. One area where Daniel truly stood out was his approach to
helping us truly segment the market. His ability to seamlessly transition into the roles of investor, client, and advisor, which made it easily comprehensible and less foreign to us as new founders.
Jeanne Hugo
Founder, Sister Sister
In my time working with Daniel, I was really inspired and encouraged to keep working even when I was faced with an obstacle (which happened often!). He gave great advice and my business thrived more than ever when I was working with him. His extensive knowledge, experience as well as enthusiasm was fantastic and I hope to work with him again in the future.
Lunga Momoza
CEO, E-Basket
Daniel Maloba is a great entrepreneur that has great dedication and motivation to upskill and propel young entrepreneurs with innovative ideas. Ideas that are groundbreaking yielding the desired socioeconomic outcomes. Daniel knowing on a personal level has been a great vessel for the development of Basket Ecommerce and where our tech startup is today. He was quite instrumental in our early conceptual stage during his time at Launchlab Stellenbosch University where he had worked closely with us during our first acceleration program called Countdown under 8 weeks to redefine and validate our business model.
Charles Bihina
Founder & CEO, DiVRsitee
Daniel was a great help in supporting my startup DiVRsitee, he helped me better organize the mapping of my clients' needs through empathy. His ability to listen and his ability to analyze, his proposals have been very valuable assets in our development.
Mihle Njokweni

Working with Maloba consulting 1:1 helped me develop a message that made my brand easier to communicate with the world , opening so many opportunities to attract investors and grow our brand. The 1:1 sessions are concise and the team provides you with all the support you need to grow into being confident to put your business out there and more importantly grow it. I highly recommend working with malobaconsulting especially if you are looking to grow your business, attract investors and expand your brands reach in the world.
Rokia Kebe
Founder & CEO, MMF
Thanks to my collaboration with Maloba Consulting, I was able to redefine the commercial positioning of my social enterprise, Miam Miam Family, and identify the most relevant prospects for its development. We worked together on the purpose of Miam Miam Family and the actors for whom my solution answered a specific problem.
The new B2B commercial strategy put in place bore fruit quickly and I was able to see concrete results and obtain commercial contracts.

I want to recommend Daniel's coaching. He helped me with user research and data collection. His advice also helped me shape my business model better.
