The 14-member panel will serve on the newly constituted Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Advisory Council.
The names of those on the panel, including the CEO of the Black Business Council Kganki Matabane and veteran businesswoman Gloria Serobe, was announced by the presidency on Wednesday.
Presidency spokesperson Tyrone Seale says the members of the panel all come from different sectors.
"In line with the legislation that applies to the council, members are drawn from business, trade unions, community-based organisations and academia. They also have broad expertise in major sectors of the economy.
“Eight of the 14 candidates are female.”
