ABOUT
Global Tech Trends To Impact Africa In The Next DecadeYou're Invited To Heavy Chef Joburg With Justin Spratt
The world is a messy place at the moment. Small, smart devices, access everywhere - it’s no wonder business is getting stuck. There are so many industry categories which appear confused and uncertain. Insurance. Media. Finance. Travel.
Innovators in this age of information are crashing through barriers we imagined impossible to breach. The proliferation of smart technology is giving us more choice than ever before - but sometimes choice can stymie, rather than stimulate, progress in organisations.
Africa, with all it’s business idiosyncrasy, is a hot bed of innovation at the moment. To help us navigate through this exhilarating environment, the newly appointed Head of Business Dev at Uber in Africa, Justin Spratt, is going to present at the next Heavy Chef in Johannesburg.
Don’t miss “Global Tech Trends That Will Influence Africa In The Next Decade”, a presentation by Justin on the 14th September. Justin will be looking at global trends such as Bitcoin, Microservices, Machine Learning, AR and VR - and unpacking ways in which they will impact our continent.
This event will fill up fast, so book now to secure your seat. It's free, mahala, gratis - thanks to our amazing partners Microsoft, Backsberg and Twitter.
