Our Story

Based in Cape Town, Just Simply Connected (Pty) Ltd, is the story of two friends who are passionate about bringing new technology to South Africa. Jonathan and Jason have known each other for the majority of their lives and have a shared keen interest in business. They wanted to take that interest and apply it in a real-world scenario.

Throughout their lives the two founders joked about making deals based on dreams of future success despite living in separate countries for the majority of their lives. As they grew older those deals started to hold more and more weight as dreams became business ideas. Inevitably, one of these ideas stuck and Simply Connected was born.
