Here’s the slidedeck from my presentation at ForumOxford: Mobile Apps and Technologies Conference 2012.
This slideshow presentation is an in-depth analysis of African mobile market penetration in each country. Included are some examples of innovative local entrepreneurs, creating new opportunities with mobile across the continent.
As with all my presentations, you will never catch the real context of my talk just based on the slides if you haven’t heard the talk. A detailed explanation of the slides was recently published on the most prominent technology blogs in Africa including iHub, Afrinnovator, HumanIPO and O Africa.
Get in touch if you’d like to discuss opportunities for your company in Africa and abroad.
