Big Data Africa Congress at AfricaCom 2013

24 Jun 2013

Big Data Africa Congress is reportedly the first and only event in Africa dedicated to Big Data and co-located with the region's popular digital conference and exhibition, AfricaCom. Big Data Africa Congress takes place in Cape Town, South Africa on 14 November 2013.

Big Data is a new generation of technologies and architectures designed to monetise very large volumes of diverse data by enabling high velocity capture, discovery and analysis. With investment in IT infrastructure soaring across many markets of the African continent and the proliferation of smartphones tracking ahead, Big Data is now on the radar of many businesses and telcos in the region.

Big Data Africa Congress is the platform to refine your "how-to" strategies for dealing with and profiting from the rise of 'infinite' big data, and will help you harness the power of data analytics, providing you with a practical guide to deriving value from the data opportunity specific to Africa's emerging markets.

The congress will gather over 20 speakers, who will highlight the latest trends and technologies related to the rise of big data in their organisations. Dedicated sections will explore the potential of telco Big Data, from providing business analytics to customer intelligence programmes.
