Youth Development Project SA (PTY) LTD (YDP SA) is a South African-based digital agency founded in 2021 but formally registered in 2025 April. It is focused on bridging the gap between education, employment, and enterprise. Operating at the intersection of technology, youth empowerment, and economic development, YDP SA offers a dual-service model: one arm dedicated to providing students and young professionals with job readiness training, digital skills development, and career placement opportunities; and the other delivering scalable IT solutions to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) through services such as SEO, web development, and AI-driven tools.

With a growing community of over 600 active members and partnerships with universities, certifying bodies, and industry leaders, YDP SA plays a vital role in equipping the next generation with the tools, training, and networks needed to thrive in the digital economy. The organization also operates Sosa Magazine Store, a fashion-tech platform that partners with over 20 global brands to generate revenue through affiliate marketing, supporting its broader mission through sustainable business practices.

YDP SA is driven by a vision to empower 10,000 students by 2030, assist 100+ SMEs with advanced digital transformation, and position South Africa as a globally competitive contributor to the future workforce. Built on strong values of integrity, excellence, collaboration, and innovation, YDP SA is more than just a business, it is a national movement dedicated to unlocking youth potential and fostering inclusive growth in the tech-driven era.
