We then track a busy corporate update: Standard Bank sets ambitious growth targets built around AI, payments and fintech, while Woolworths ties its incoming CEO’s big share award to demanding performance hurdles. Bloomberg reports a landmark jury verdict finding Meta and Google liable in a social-media addiction case, and we close with a Good Hope story on hearX — the South African health-tech firm pushing newborn screening and teacher training via mobile tools.
