Episode 31 Nomso Kana - #WisdomPersonified Conversations with Dudu Msomi

Nomso Kana is a Nuclear scientist by trade and an entrepreneur in the broadband infrastructure sector. She founded Sun n Shield 84 Tech, a broadband infrastructure solutions company that is designing connectivity networks and distributing passive fibre optic products. Nomso is not your stereotypical scientist – of an eccentric, isolated workaholic who is socially ill at ease. That image has not held true for many scientists that I know. She is a combination of intelligence and wisdom at a young age. You can undermine her at your peril. During this conversation, I learnt that South Africa is number 3 in the world in the production of radioisotopes that are used for chemotherapy in cancer treatments. Did you know that? Diagnosed with cancer at 22 years of age, our world is privileged that she triumphed, is thriving, and contributing to our development as a country and the continent, as a Commissioner in the Presidential 4IR Commission, amongst many other roles, having been the sole survivor out of a group of 9 individuals that went through the treatment journey with her that lost their fight. Nomso Kana is someone to keep track of in this life. I look forward to the positive contributions she is still to make in our country and the inspiration she is for both males and females to get into niche knowledge disciplines in STEM careers that are so necessary for Africa to take its place amongst global nations this 21st century.
