The largest digital infrastructure event in Africa, focused on connecting the next billion people

I attended the Africa Tech Festival 2020 and it exceeded my expectations, I never knew it would be so rich. I was particularly surprised about the depth of knowledge shared by the speakers from diverse backgrounds and geographies.

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.
