Elon Musk, the nonconformist entrepreneur, has been inspiring people of all ages for quite some time. From founding PayPal to selling Tesla cars and launching Space X, Musk’s accomplishments appear to be almost limitless. With all this success he has been making around the world, it is no surprise that many want to know if he has visited South Africa. <\/p>\n

Born in South Africa in1971, Elon Musk is a proud South African, with strong ties to his home country and a great affiliation to the nation. In 2002, he donated funds to the African Institute for Mathematical Science (AIMS), an educational center which provides advanced training to students from all over Africa. More recently he founded The Musk Foundation, whose main goal is to support renewable energy initiatives in South Africa. <\/p>\n

Despite his charitable activities in South Africa, there are no records of Musk ever setting foot in the country. Recent articles from Forbes Magazine suggest that due to his decreasing influence in South Africa and the burden of fame, Musk has turned down an offer from the South African government to visit the country. There is also speculation that due to his huge obligations in companies like Tesla and SpaceX, Musk simply does not have enough time to leave the United States and visit South Africa. <\/p>\n

Independent reports from BBC News and the South African newspaper, The Daily Maverick, state that Musk is currently not in South Africa and that he has no immediate plans to visit the country. Although no one knows for sure why Musk hasn’t yet visited South Africa, many speculate that he might be waiting for the right opportunity – when he can make a significant impact. <\/p>\n
