AfricaCom becomes a virtual event as part of the new Virtual Africa Tech Festival

I found the leadership sessions extremely valuable with high levels of engagement from industry leaders. It served as a very insightful session and well curated by the organisers. Considering how pressured such conferences can be, it is commendable that the organisers had the foresight to create such an engaging space. Well worth attending.

As a government employe and a citizen residing in the African continent I got to learn about the high level of digital innovation and creativity in other African countries. The case studies that were demonstrated left us with our jaws hanging. What was amazing was to know that those countries that are leading in the digital space have limited resources and infrastructure compared to South Africa. They have come up with various ways of providing internet connectivity in the villages that are extremely disadvantaged and marginalised. On the other hand, I got the opportunity to interact and engage with colleagues from other spheres of our government and I learnt a lot. I will definately register again.

It was breathtaking. The presentations were so revealing it gave us a new view in our quest to expand into other markets across the continent. The sessions with MNO leaders and their openness to VAS providers unlike in the economy we operate in give you a different view of how to expand into the region and beyond. We made excellent contacts that has left us as an organisation and me as an individual richer at all levels.

This conference has always been one of the best Technology conferences that I have attended in the last two years. AfricaTech introduction to this year's conference made it more unique for those of us from the IT background. I really enjoyed myself academically and socially and wish I would be given opportunity to attend next years.
