About Aether
A technology partner that listens first.
Aether is a technology consultancy based in Pretoria, founded in 2026 by Jethro Nong and Karabo Segolela.
Why we exist
Technology should fit the organisation — not the other way round.
Too many African organisations are sold technology they don't need, or left alone with tools nobody taught them to use. Licences go unused, systems don't talk to each other, and staff fall back on paper and WhatsApp.
We started Aether to do it differently: understand how the organisation actually works, recommend honestly, and stay until the change sticks. When you work with us, you work directly with the founders — the people who advise you are the same people who build and support what we deliver.
How we work
Three things we always do.
Problem first
We start with your challenge, not our product list. Technology is how we solve problems — not what we're selling.
Honest recommendations
You get the most effective solution, not necessarily the most expensive one — even if that means using what you already have.
We stay
Every project includes documentation and training, and we remain available as your organisation grows.
Founders
The people you'll work with.
