5G AFRICA BECOMES A VIRTUAL EVENT AS PART OF THE NEW VIRTUAL AFRICA TECH FESTIVAL

Broken down into a series of events running across the week, Africa Tech Festival will enhance our mission to unify Africa’s response to the 4IR and, in doing so, accelerate socio-economic development across the continent.

A host of inspirational, thought-leaders will take the virtual stage to present on their best-practice and innovations, debate critical challenges in network evolution and monetisation in Africa and answer your questions!

Available to all 5G Africa attendees, these informal, Chatham House Rule, interactive discussions give you the opportunity to reflect on the presentations and engage in conversation with peers on given topics, moderating by leading industry analysts.

A host of innovative technology providers will showcase their ground-breaking solutions and software in quick fire demonstrations, making it easy for you to discover new partners!
