The Issue

South Africa's "Commission on Companies and Intellectual Property" has decided to shut down Open Data as of July 09, 2021.

As part of the larger B2BHint team, we're asking you to sign this petition to bring back open data for businesses because it's an important facet of the business segment.

Why is open business data important?
