RSAWEB supports the tech entrepreneurs of tomorrow
RSAWEB is proud to be a silver sponsor of the non-profit initiative Net Prophet, a free conference geared towards inspiring and equipping technology entrepreneurs, which takes place on the 13th of May 2010 at the Old Mutual Campus Courtyard, West Campus, Mutual Park.
The event, which is hosted by the RAMP Foundation, brings together the most innovative / successful / creative / ambitious thinkers and entrepreneurs in the local Internet space, to share their stories, ideas and predictions for the future. The event is not just for people within the tech industry, but is beneficial for anyone who has web-based business interests.
This year’s event is a celebration of digital success in Africa, and also answers burning questions such as: How connected is South Africa and Africa? What are we doing with these online capabilities? Can we teach the world a thing or two about innovation? And what does a company need to do to tap into this opportunity?
The speaker (Prophet) line-up features an interesting mix of big industry names, innovators, international tech commentators and the tech rock stars of tomorrow:
- Stephan Ekbergh – Travelstart
