    It was Madiba's words: "I love you all so much, I want to put you in my pocket and take you home", that inspired Jones to return to South Africa after spending seven years in London.

    In addition to founding Homecoming Revolution in 2003, she was co-founder and Executive Creative Director (from 2000-2013) of Morrisjones Advertising, creator of the kulula.com brand. Jones is on the founding board of the SA chapter of the Entrepreneurs' Organisation, a global business network.
