Social in Africa?... Mobile IS where it's at. SA Social Landscape Report 2013...Tim Bishop
For this keynote in September I was asked to look at the niche and platform plays in Africa for the SA Social Landscape Report 2013 conference.
Its a look at mobile (of course), when and when not to use it, the real numbers, the harsh realities... the real definition of a smartphone, and the usual Tim-isms and a hint of controversy.... Agencies are crap, no such thing as Social Media Gurus... All under a Deloitte Digital, brand, ouch. (Oh and perhaps the first Deloitte slide deck to say the word 'F&ck'!
The first ever mention of ME3 the chemical equation for all things social.. me, me, me (remember that I said it first ;)
Outbound Chinese Tourism and Consumption Trendsdigitalinasia
Along with rising levels of income, travel has become a key indicator of quality of life for the country's rising
affluent population with more and more Chinese traveling overseas for their vacations. According to statistics
from the China National Tourism Administration, Chinese tourists traveled overseas on 131 million occasions
in 2017, an increase of 7.0% from the previous year. Data from the International Association of Tour Managers
shows that overseas travel[1] spending by Chinese tourists reached USD 261.1 billion in 2016, an increase of 4.5%
year-on-year, and ranking first worldwide.
What do Chinese tourists buy when they travel overseas? What role do mobile payments play in these overseas
transactions? What are the drivers and barriers for Chinese tourists to use mobile payments while traveling
overseas? In which travel scenarios have mobile payments been widely adopted? If overseas merchants adopt
Chinese mobile payment brands, will it boost Chinese tourists' spending? This report attempts to answer these
questions.
The Outbound Chinese Tourism and Consumption Trends: 2017 Survey, jointly issued by Nielsen and Alipay, provides
an in-depth analysis of current consumption and payment behaviors of outbound Chinese tourists travelling
overseas and assesses future trends. Specifically, this analysis focuses on the usage of mobile payment platforms
by Chinese tourists. Alipay, an icon of cashless lifestyle in China, is the focus of a case study discussing the
influence of mobile payment platforms on Chinese tourists' spending patterns overseas.
The respondents to this survey include both Chinese and non-Chinese tourists who have traveled overseas in
the past year and are also planning to travel abroad within the next year. The respondents are aged 20 to 50,
and are segmented hereinafter into the generational conventions used in the Chinese context: the "post-70s"
generation (people born between 1970 and 1979), the "post-80s" (between '80 and '89), and the "post-90s" (those
born between '90 and '99). 2,009 of the Chinese respondents interviewed online by Nielsen come from China's
first-, second- and third-tier cities[2]. The 613 non-Chinese tourists traveling overseas[3] surveyed include 201
people from the United States, 111 from the United Kingdom, 100 from France, 100 from South Korea, and 101
from Japan. In-depth, face-to-face interviews were also conducted with 12 respondents who had returned to their
hometowns of Shanghai and Chengdu after their overseas travels.
Social Recruiting in Africa By Segun Akiode, ACIPM
The employment landscape has significantly changed by the advent of growing technology and in recent times by the advent social media.
According to Nielsen, internet users continue to spend more time with social media sites than any other type of site.
Social Media is here to stay or so it seems, and it can either be a friend or a foe, depending on its use.
Hence, every forward looking organization is expected to embrace social media to support their talent acquisition efforts.

Developments in the African Digital Economy - Fola OdufuwaFola Odufuwa
Presentation made at the ITU 2018 Regional Human Capacity Building Workshop on
“Strengthening Capacities in Internet Governance in Africa” describing ways to create an enabling environment for the development of the digital economy in the African region; how legal frameworks are aiming to facilitate e-commerce and the development of related services, such as local online marketplaces and e-payment mechanisms, as well as digital financial services.
Policy paper 6 understanding what is happening in ict in nigeriaFola Odufuwa
The Nigerian telecoms market is fully liberalised, highly competitive and evolving with time. Since 1992, a wide range of regulatory initiatives have been undertaken to open up the market to private operators who altogether provide products and services across the entire communications spectrum. These initiatives, particularly in relation to market entry, have resulted in a phenomenal 53% Compound Average Growth Rate (CAGR) in overall fixed and mobile subscriptions since 2001. Quarterly sectoral growth is up to 35% and the annual contribution to GDP is currently estimated at 6%.
However inspite of the widely-published success, Nigeria lags behind its peers with respect to a number of market indicators as highlighted in this report, which is based on a representative survey by Research ICT Africa (“RIA”) of individuals, households and businesses in 14 African countries. Nigeria ranks 4th with respect to mobile penetration; 5th behind Rwanda, Tanzania, Kenya and Ghana in terms of industry perception of the effectiveness of domestic telecommunications policy and regulation; 17th in terms of the affordability of prepaid mobile products from the dominant operator; and 13th in mobile prepaid affordability.
This study, which is based on a nationally representative household survey conducted in 2011 by RIA, shows that there is a general paradox of performance on the one hand and deficiency on the other, across all the sub-sectors of the telecoms market. Mobile telephony is experiencing huge growth simultaneously as the fixed sector is in a downward spiral. The penetration of fixed telephony is a meagre 65,914 households, or 0.3% of total households in the country, though this study shows that there is ample demand for both fixed and mobile telephone products.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Eniola Oyinmomo, Researcher, Lagos, Nigeria
Mobile Broadband Trends :
Nigeria
2. Mobile Broadband Trends: Nigeria
• Executive Summary
• Defining mobile broadband in Nigeria
• Nigeria Mobile: not too early
• Landscape:
– Operators
– Common devices and OS
– Identifying the early adopters
• Payments in Nigeria: the nuances and trends for mobile
• Satellite v. cable in Nigeria: which is larger
• Appendix
3. Executive Summary
• Broadband in Nigeria means “wireless”
• Government support of mobile broadband will ensure ubiquity
and 4G/LTE infrastructure
• Smart phone adoption by Nigerians is large and growing
• Now is the time to build infrastructure
4. Defining Mobile Broadband
• Up to now, the term broadband referred to high-speed
communications networks that connected end-users at a data
transfer speed greater than 256 Kbit/s.
• As such, broadband within the Nigerian context is now
defined as an internet experience where the user can access
the most demanding content in real time at a minimum speed
of 1.5 Mbit/s.
5. The licensing, rollout and upgrade of Mobile networks based on 2.5G (GPRS), EDGE,
UMTS, HSPA, HSPA+, HSUPA, HSDPA and CDMA EV-DO technologies, as well as, the
introduction of smartphones and other mobile devices with seamless capability to
connect the internet have been responsible for the current growth in internet access
and usage recorded in Nigeria.
This trend will receive further boost with the wider rollout of 3G, across the country
making it possible for many subscribers to access broadband internet using their mobile
devices. Currently outside the key cities of Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt, broadband
access is generally unavailable. While the investment in the deployment of 4G/LTE
broadband networks is still being awaited, operators have continued to deploy 3.5G,
3.75G, and HSPA technologies.
Mobile broadband is therefore emblematic of the potential quick win for broadband
adoption and usage in Nigeria.
Wireless technology is the primary delivery medium for
broadband access in Nigeria
