VAS AFRICA
As Africa’s telecommunications market is maturing, the provision of value-added and entertainment services becomes a growing part of its future development. Telecoms operators have access to higher capacity which, combined with new technologies, enable them to deliver more high-value services. In order to make the most of this potential, they have to build partnerships with content owners, developers, aggregators and solutions suppliers, and develop new business models. This brand new dedicated event brings together the growing telecoms VAS ecosystem to discuss its developments. Over two days, it will enable stakeholders to build the partnerships that will bring African customers the most attractive services and generate new revenue streams.

EDUCATION WEEK
Education Week, now running for the 5th consecutive year, is the largest annual education conference and expo in Africa, boasting over 1400 delegates from across the continent. It looks at critical issues affecting schools, FET colleges and universities and provides a forum for representatives from all these institutions, as well as government, publishers, e-learning providers and corporate organisations, to bring new ideas, tested strategies and real solutions to improve institutional global competitiveness through quality in education for all.
The challenges facing the education sector cannot be addressed in isolation, and Education Week brings together individuals with diverse areas of interest, knowledge and skills to share their ideas and work in unison to ensure that educational institutions adequately prepare our youth to become productive members of society, and eventually take their place as our future leaders, hence the theme for 2011: Bridging the skills gap through quality education for all.
