About / NextXI Africa
A new future
for youth football.
The people behind the platform
NextXI is a South African sports-media company reimagining the future of youth football, with a wider African horizon.
Our story
Experience for what comes next.
NextXI brings together a consortium of experienced sports strategists consisting of athletes and career professionals with more than 20 years in sports business and sports consulting.
That experience spans Africa, Europe and North America. We are applying it from South Africa to build a more connected future for youth football: one with stronger media, clearer partnerships and better visibility for the people developing the game.
Our point of view
Build with the game. Build for the continent.
Partnership-led
Progress comes from working with the leagues, federations, clubs, brands, broadcasters and platforms around the game.
People first
Young players and the communities that support them stay at the centre of the work.
NextXI Foundation
Opportunity beyond the pitch.
The NextXI Foundation aims to invest in grassroots football development and programmes that help young people build a future in sport.
Its ambition is to create more routes for boys and girls from underrepresented communities to pursue sports careers, on and off the field. The Foundation is part of NextXI's long-term commitment to the people and places that grow the game.
