INVITATION
CompTIA, the Computing Technology Industry
Association, in partnership with ITA, the Information
Technology Association is pleased to invite you to its first
South African INNOVATION FORUM (IF) at The Castle
Kyalami Hotel & Conference Centre.
In its transition to a knowledge-based society and with
its vision to promote a better life for all, the South African
government views ICT as integral to economic
development and central to its poverty alleviation
strategies.
Fundamental to the growth and success of the ICT sector
is the development of a culture of innovation
and entrepreneurship which requires the appropriate
legislative framework and market conditions supported
by substantial research and development.
The purpose of the South African Innovation Forum
is to spotlight national policies in key areas of the ICT
industry, such as Intellectual Property, industry based
open and multiple standards, e-skills and workforce
development. It is also a meeting ground for industry,
regulators and media to develop and discuss workable
innovative strategies for South Africa’s ICT industry.
The South African Innovation Forum follows the success
of similar awareness-raising events in Lisbon, Berlin,
Prague, Budapest, Warsaw and Copenhagen.
