AFRICACOM MEDIA

Hopefully you have noticed that this year AfricaCom is looking a lot different! From our re-brand, to a new website, to a week-long festival of activities, we are changing.

Part of the AfricaCom evolution also involves a change in approach to the way we engage our community. We are moving away from an event only model, into a 365 digital community. We already have a great event, but we want to change this into a more meaningful, year-round dialogue on the hottest topics at AfricaCom to better equip our community to drive digital transformation in Africa. Join the debate below! CLICK HERE

Another area of focus is the media. We already have a fantastic amount of media partners and the press attend AfricaCom in high numbers, but we want to build on this. This year we will have a brand new press area catering for the needs of our press community and for the first time ever we are launching a press conference where exciting product launches will be taking place. This will take place on Day 1 - press please watch this space for more information.

We would also like to welcome Burson-Marsteller as our chosen AfricaCom PR partner for 2016, who's experience and expertise is second to none. As one of the world's largest PR firms, we are really excited to see how they can help us to elevate AfricaCom.
