Day 3 of Africa Tech Festival and that is a wrap for me! I leave Africa Tech Festival 2024 behind me feeling inspired and optimistic about the futures that we are creating in Africa. I have met and networked with some of the most amazing people with the most awe-inspiring stories. I will share these stories over the next couple of weeks. Excited for what these collaborations can bring and the futures we can create together. Interestingly one of the highlights of this event, where a lot of networking takes place, was the panel discussion on networking that I attended today. The discussion was lead by Matshepo Sehloho with the panel consisting of Ayanda Siboto, Kimlynn Temple and Hassan Adam. Some of the takeaways that I bring back to my team at Salt: - Try, fail, learn, go again, - Adding to your network is more important than taking from it, - Take care of the relationship outside of the work, - There is no blueprint for fitting in (loved this Ayanda Siboto) - Don't tell a story that you think wants to be heard, be authentic, - Show appreciation, your network consists of humans, not resources, - Keep putting yourself in awkward situations, - Skip the video meeting, go for the coffee, - Connect your connections, - Increasing your network, increases your net worth, - Leave the room with more than it had before you entered it, - We all have imposter syndrome, deal with it. Thanks so much for bringing your authentic selves to the conversation today, I learned a lot.

It takes the wisdom of the elders, (and young people's energy to win). As a partner for Campus collaborations for the Generation Now project of EMY Africa, we happened to not only witness but also contribute to a one-of-a-kind three (3) day expo ¬ EMY Africa Expo 2024. One of the major highlights for us was the Inspiring Greatness Forum. This is just a glimpse of the brands and personalities that graced the event.

In recent times, we’ve seen numerous case studies on China’s rise to becoming a global economic powerhouse—and one thing is clear: this rise was no accident. 💯 Through strategic initiatives like special economic zones, robust vocational training, and policies such as the "Made in China" and "Thousand Talents Plan," China cultivated a highly skilled workforce, emerging as the global center for innovation and manufacturing. Africa now stands at a similar crossroads, brimming with opportunities to become a global leader in the digital economy. 💚 At Itana, we’re seizing this moment by building Africa’s first digital free zone—a hub for talent discovery, development, and deployment, amongst many others.  With our cutting-edge Itana district that will combine innovation, training, and world-class living spaces (our live, work, and play environment), we’re shaping the future of work and entrepreneurship in Africa.
