Digitech To Hold Its First Conference This October

I am glad to make known to you that just as technology is advancing and cutting across every facets of life, Nigeria has not been kept in the gallery and is benefiting therefrom.
Impressive that the giant of Africa is almost leaving its local (Africa) territory to join world changing countries in technology.


Digitech, a Nigerian company, focusing on data content and technology innovation, has scheduled its very first conference, tagged “Towards A Data-Driven Economy”, to be held on the 27th & 28th of October, 2016, by 9am - 6pm, at Landmark Event Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos. The conference is geared towards gathering top tech thinkers, global policy influencers, leading investors and start-ups across Africa, to explore the opportunities in big data.


The organizers are seeking for an in-depth exploration of how technology and innovation can impact our communities and unlock economic prosperity, considering the current post-oil economy grappling with recession.


I must say, the conference is packed with insightful and educating topics to be discussed at the plenary session, some of which fascinates me the most are: Data Profiling For Policy Formulation And Social Development, Data Driven Entertainment, and Data Intelligence; The Lifeblood Of Innovation And Marketing.


Some speakers at the conference include: Prof. Yemi Osibajo, Vice President, Federal Republic of Nigeria; Mr Adebayo Shittu, Minister of Communication; Professor Umaru Garba Danbatta, Executive Vice Chairman, NCC; Engr/Dr Ogbonaya Onu, Minister of Science and Tech; Juliet Ehimuan, Google’s Country Manager in Nigeria; Jamie Woodruff, Ethical Hacker, Europe; Dr. Ernest Ndukwe, Chairman Openmedia Group; and Uzoma Dozie, MD Diamond Bank.
