The Second Edition Of The Africa Technology Summit Coming Up In Lagos This December

Africa Technology Summit (ATS) is fast becoming the marquee technology event on the continent. Following the successful inaugural event in Ghana last year, ATS is proud to make its entry into the city referred to as Africa’s Silicon Valley: Lagos.
Pulling in the brightest minds in the field, and spanning across two days, ATS encourages attendees to interact and discuss using technology to achieve Africa’s goals.

We're bringing together a who’s-who of all parts of the African technology ecosystem, including telcos, banks, the usual multinational tech giants for discussion, deal making and collaboration opportunities. All these major players will be explaining their Africa strategies, and sharing what's next for them on the continent.
Speakers include some of the biggest names in the tech and mobile space, including representatives from Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Vodacom and MTN, as well as a range of African entrepreneurs young and old.
