AMASA #MobileMatters Seminar - staying mobile in our always-connected world

For the past few years the advertising industry has being discussing mobile as "the next big thing" for advertisers and now, with mobile having grown by 86% across South Africa over the past six years, we can safely say the "next big thing" has undeniably arrived and is here to stay.

According to an article by Forbes on the 2016 predictions for the "App Economy", consumers have reached a state of “hypermobility”. They rapidly adopt mobile technologies and downloading applications that keep them connected anywhere, anytime. This always-connected generation is modifying their daily behaviours based on their endless choices in mobile and electronic devices.

AMASA Cape Town – the CT chapter of the Advertising and Media Association of South Africa - invites you to join them as they explore the world of Mobile Communication; its challenges, benefits, opportunities and share learnings with from some of the leading minds and experts in the local industry.

Don’t miss out on the #MobileMatters full day seminar to be hosted on 21 April 2016 at the Inner City Ideas Cartel in Waterkant street, Cape Town.
