Aspiring to more in Africa - 29 Nov 2010
By Sindy Peters, Africa editor
Africa has many strong, innovative, capable thought-leaders across the continent. From educators to entrepreneurs, they inspire us all to aspire to more. Researchers and opinion leaders now have an opportunity to share their knowledge on an online platform called Africa Portal. Available to the public, this project in itself is inspiring as a young ambitious Zimbabwean could potentially have access to the works of a successful Egyptian professor - the sharing of knowledge will have a chance to grow even wider and as such become more valuable to the people it reaches. Africa Portal is yet another giant leap in the right direction for the continent.
If you are a thought-leader in Africa within the media, marketing, advertising arena and would like to forecast possible trends in 2011 for the industry, either in your specific country or for the African industry as a whole, please contact me at moc.ytinummoczib@swenacirfa. These pieces will be published in early 2011 as part of the Biz 2011 Trends initiative on Bizcommunity Africa.
We're on the homestretch to a much anticipated festive season; as said in sunny South Africa, hou vas (hold on tight).
