Previous Summit

Since 1999, Africa has experienced a continuous period of economic growth with foreign investments increasing at an exponential rate. The struggle of both US and European economies in the face of the recession has made Africa ripe for investments while leading companies in the region are striving to close the gap of competition and position themselves as global players. And with this surge in growth, these companies now have the budgets they need to invest in strategic IT initiatives to maximise efficiency and gain competitive advantage.   

With this phenomenal potential for IT spend approaching, it is absolutely essential for forward-thinking CIOs to meet the demands of transformation and prepare for the impact their role will have on the overall success of the organization's value chain. While CIOs in Africa will look to budget IT spend effectively, their investments must emphasize the use of IT to put their organizations in a competitive position during these game changing times.
