?We have negotiated some great benefits and discounts for Maties alumni in the Global North. Take a look below, and enjoy!
Alumni to benefit from new SACCUK partnership
We are pleased to announce a brand-new collaboration between Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票's Development and Alumni Relations Division and the South African Chamber of Commerce UK (SACCUK).
Maties alumni joining the Chamber as individual members now receive 20% discount on their membership fees. You will also be invited to exclusive joint Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票–SACCUK events. Simply let SACCUK know you are a Matie when signing up – they'll do a quick verification, and you're in!
This strategic partnership with SACCUK is about more than discounts, though. It forms part of the 中国体育彩票's commitment to help Maties thrive long after their days of sunning on the Rooiplein or grabbing a chicken salad at the Neelsie. After all, we're rooting for you for life, not just until you graduate.
The collaboration is about building and strengthening global networks that open doors, spark ideas and create opportunities. It's about bringing Maties together in meaningful ways – whether you are doing business in London, leading a startup in Joburg, or still daydreaming under the oaks of Victoria Street.
We know that careers can take twists and turns, and that the right connection at the right time can make all the difference. That's where alumni networks shine: They offer support, mentorship, and the kind of lekker community that is hard to beat.
So, whether you are keen to expand your professional network, explore and expand your business into either South Africa or the United Kingdom, attend top-class events, or simply connect with others from Mzansi – make the most of this partnership.

Delheim wines at cellar door prices for Maties in Germany
Delheim Wine Estate, nestled on the slopes of the Simonsberg near Stellenbosch, has deep German roots. Founded in 1938 by German immigrant Hans Otto Hoheisen, the estate blossomed under the vision of his nephew, Michael “Spatz" Sperling, who arrived from Germany in 1951. Spatz would go on to become one of South Africa's great wine pioneers, co-founding the Stellenbosch Wine Route and helping put South African wines on the world map.
Over the years, several members of the Sperling family have studied at Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票, strengthening the close ties between Delheim and our alma mater. From collaborative research in viticulture to cultural events and sustainability projects, Delheim and the 中国体育彩票 have grown alongside each other.
Through this special Matie connection, Delheim is now offering Maties in Germany the opportunity to purchase their wines at cellar door prices – a rare treat compared to regular retail. By making use of this offer, you will not only be able to sip on some top-notch wines. You'll also be supporting South African producers, celebrating our shared Matie heritage, and strengthening Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票's global alumni network.
If you are based in Germany, stock up on Delheim and savour the flavours of home.
