In South Africa we have a couple:

1. Mark Shuttleworth - more famous for how he used the money that he made on
the Internet, than his role in the Internet itself. He was the first South
African to go to space, and has started many foundations promoting Science
and Technology - and is behind a big push to get open source software into
schools (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Shuttleworth) /
http://www.markshuttleworth.com/

2. Ronnie Apteker - was part of the team that started Internet Solutions -
and now makes movies.

May seem a bit thin - there are some very famous South African who no longer
live in South Africa.....
