The 2024 elections and beyond: Sakeliga’s strategy and what we will do next

The national election has ushered in more fluid and competitive political dynamics. Most analysis is currently focussed on how this may lead to better government and state administration, but at Sakeliga we also ask how it affects our long-term strategic aim. In the increasing political complexity, we see opportunities not only to improve the government’s impact on the business environment but also to ultimately redefine the state’s role in the economy. 

Because elections emphasise short-term political matters, it is easy to forget that the role of the state itself can, and at times must, be changed. Throughout its history, the state has both expanded and been rolled back, depending on the strength and authority of other organised sections of society able to think well beyond five-year election cycles. 

At Sakeliga, we consider the coming decade of increasing political complexity an opportunity to reform governance, yes, but also to fundamentally renegotiate the state-business relationship.
