The Alexander Theatre (also known as The Alex) is a theatre in Braamfontein, Johannesburg, South Africa.

The Joburg Centre for Software Engineering (JCSE) is an official Centre at based at the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits University), Johannesburg. The JCSE was established in 2005 as a partnership between academia, government, and industry to promote skills development, research, innovation, and best practices in software engineering, software development, and related ICT fields. This partnership between three major sectors, the City of Johannesburg, the University of the Witwatersrand and ICT and financial services was supposed to lead to a growing infrastructure base, better governance and investments in Gauteng. The JCSE initiated a digital innovation hub known as Wits University’s Tshimologong Digital Innovation Precinct. This precinct was launched in 2016, with the intention of reaching greater heights of industrialisation. A year later, the 2017 Tshimologong Precinct was spun off by Adam Habib as The Wits Incubator (Pty) Ltd company (Tshimologong) Although innovative, the precinct has not addressed poor policy, under regulation and mis-governance.Today, instead of a smart city, Joburg faces multiple basic infrustructure problems that President Ramaphosa demanded that they quickly address. before the G20 Summit takes place in Johannesburg in November 2025. Software solutions are not a quick fix for hijacked buildings, the lack of affordable housing, an unreliable water supply system, potholes or blocked sewers. Barry Dwalatky who launched the JCSE, would be disappointed.

The Tshimologong Precinct is a Wits University based tech incubator in Braamfontein. Tshimologong is a Setswana Word for new beginnings. This tech hub was set up by the late Barry Dwolatzky in 2014, and then launched in 2016. Dwolatzky was known and recognized for his leadership and idealism in software engineering and among his many achievements, he led the Joburg Center for Software Engineering (JCSE). On this initiative, Dwolatzky was inspired by start-up urbanism. The original vision of the precinct was to inspire talent, create employment and commercialise the research of Wits students. Since its establishment, this hub or lab has indeed resulted in spatial changes in Braamfontein, but it is debatable as to whether the Tshimologong Precinct itself has lead and catalyzed an “economic renaissance”, or a “flat white” economy, as originally envisaged. Instead, the “new beginnings” may be described as another example of “siliconization”, where big tech and the [Nouveau_riche| nouveau riche] collaborate to cannibalize the technocultures of an old regime. The Tshimologong Precinct is also the location for IBM’s second research hub on the African Continent. The Tshimologong Precinct aspires to facilitate collaboration between academia, corporates, government and entrepreneurs. For example, the Hack Jozi Challenge was a partnership between the City of Johannesburg and Wits University (through the Tshimologong Precinct), which is intended to create and develop digital solutions which could be used to solve common challenges. Conceived as a bootcamp, the Hack Jozi challenge was promoted as a method for aspiring entrepreneurs to deliver innovative ideas annually. Hack Jozi Winners would earn R1 000 000 and business mentorship from the Joburg Centre for Software Engineering, while other prize winners would earn hub mentorship opportunities.

Gauteng and Environs Library Consortium (GAELIC) was the first project of FOTIM (Foundation of Tertiary Institutions of the Northern Metropolis) in South Africa. GAELIC was founded in April 1996. Its mission was to use and develop the information resources in the Gauteng, Limpopo, and North West province of South Africa in order to promote education, research and lifelong learning. Due to consolidation of projects and duplication, FOTIM and GAELIC closed down in July 2011.

The Schmerenbeck Educational Centre for Gifted and Talented Children, an organisation based at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa, promoted, encouraged and fostered the education of gifted children within South Africa without regard to race. The centre was originally housed on campus in portable prefabricated buildings before it moved to a house in the Johannesburg suburb of Parktown opposite the University of the Witwatersrand's Education Department until it closed in 1995.

The Wits Theatre Complex is a performing arts complex in Braamfontein, a suburb of Johannesburg, South Africa. It is part of the University of the Witwatersrand, although it also caters for professional companies, dance studios and schools. It is run by the University's Performing Arts Administration (PAA).The Wits Theatre Complex opened in July 1983. Plans for the construction of the theatre complex were first announced ten years before that; in the interim, money for construction had been raised from public and private sources. Before the construction of the theatre complex, the Schools of Dramatic Art and Music had been staging productions in a building on campus called the Nunnery, a former convent. The Nunnery has been retained as a teaching venue. The Wits Theatre Complex has three venues: the 367-seat Wits Theatre the 120-seat Amphitheatre the 120-seat Downstairs TheatreIn addition, the 1035-seat Great Hall is also used by the PAA, although it is not part of the Wits Theatre Complex.
