Many lessons were learned in the process.
Beverley has honed her knowledge and is passionate about:
• green energy;
• medicinal cannabis;
• blockchain technology and innovation; and

• councillor in local government on the Tourism, Marketing and Events portfolio;
• member of the Western Cape Provincial Parliament;
• standing committee chairperson of the Committee for Economic Opportunities; and
• member of the Environmental Affairs and Planning Committee.
