Founder & Technology Strategist
Technology should solve real problems for real people. That principle has shaped every system Siyabulela Sinqe has built since entering the technology industry in 2011.
Siyabulela is a South African technology strategist, systems developer, and entrepreneur with a track record of building purposeful digital platforms across healthcare, sports, finance, and media. His work spans the full software lifecycle, from architecture and design through to deployment and long-term support, always anchored in the specific context and needs of African organisations. He formally founded Felonk in 2015, building on four years of hands-on industry experience.
In 2019, Siyabulela and his sister Zintle Mokoka co-founded the Zithulele Sinqe Foundation, dedicated to continuing the developmental legacy and vision of legendary South African athlete Zithulele Sinqe. The Foundation continues the community work that has long been close to the family, focusing on youth development, sports participation, mentorship, and upliftment in townships and rural areas. Zintle plays a central and active role in both the Foundation and within Felonk itself.
Alongside this, Siyabulela built Vukasantewaa, a youth-driven entrepreneurial initiative and cultural brand centred on ambition, empowerment, and township entrepreneurship. Vukasantewaa gained national visibility through Moneyweb, Radio 2000, and Power FM, and contributed to Siyabulela being named a Trailblazer on Power FM's Afternoon Drive.
