Africa Gathering announces dates, launches site

The goal of Africa Gathering is to help highlight all of the work being done in the world by Africans and friends of Africa. The organisers aim to help budding innovators and entrepreneurs by putting the profits of the events into some of the projects of the attendees. This is known as the Africa Gathering Prize and it is awarded at every Africa Gathering event.

Edward Scotcher, founder of Africa Gathering, said, "After a fantastic year of events in 2009 in which we gave a platform to so many entrepreneurs and innovators in the tech/Africa field, we're delighted to announce five events across Africa, Europe and North America in 2010 from our new website. Africa Gathering is passionate about finding the most interesting people and amazing concepts and showing them to the world and so we encourage everyone to come and join us as we continue sharing ideas for positive change."
