For Richard Rayne, entrepreneurship has always been tied to education and growth. As the founder of iLearn Corporate Education, he has spent 24 years helping South African corporates close skills gaps through accredited training, bridging compliance needs while empowering first-time entrants into the workforce. He also launched MyMastery, a local masterclass-style platform born during Covid, to make thought leadership more accessible.
In this Ignite 2025 conversation, Richard shares personal and professional reflections: how DJing became creative therapy during divorce, how EO has been a safe space for vulnerability since he joined in 2012, and why Ignite’s 5% talks matter for authentic peer learning. Looking forward, he highlights the rise of hybrid learning models powered by AI personalization, where technology acts as an enabler—not a replacement—for human connection and accredited growth.
This episode blends culture, creativity, and cutting-edge education—a must-listen for founders passionate about learning and impact.
