SAEON’s National Office has moved … from downtown Pretoria to the vibrant surroundings of Persequor Technopark, Scientia - 800 metres from the entrance gate to the National Research Foundation (NRF), of which it is a facility.

According to SAEON Managing Director Johan Pauw, the primary motivation for the move was to locate SAEON closer to the hub of scientific activity.

“SAEON now finds itself within close proximity of the NRF, the Department of Science and Technology, the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research, the South African National Biodiversity Institute, the Innovation Hub, the University of Pretoria, Agricultural Research Council and the Council for Geoscience,” he explains.

The new address of the National Office is The Woods, Building C, Ground Floor, 41 De Havilland Crescent, Persequor Technopark 0020.
