Final Word
When we conceptualised the C2C Summit, we felt it was important that the programme enabled collaboration and transparency across the whole Telecoms and ICT Ecosystem in Eastern, Central and Southern Africa. As the above charts indicate, this was achieved with a cross section of key regional stakeholders from across the ecosystem. At the start of the summit we challenged all participants to embrace the opportunities to connect, communicate and collaborate over the two days. The interaction during the main programme, the enthusiasm and engagement within the workshops, the sheer number of private business meetings and the enthusiasm during the networking sessions were all clear evidence of everyone’s commitment to make the very best of all opportunities presented by the summit. Thanks once again to our sponsors and partners whose financial support made the summit possible. Thanks to all of you who attended and contributed to the success of the summit through your active participation throughout.
With your ongoing support and involvement, C2C will continue to develop as an essential piece of the Telecoms and ICT development puzzle for the region. We look forward to seeing you again next year.
