While "Africa Rising" has become the economists' buzz phrase for this immense growth opportunity, Africa 2050 aims to separate the hype from the hard facts and put flesh and bones on the numbers. Featuring entrepreneurs and investors either based in Africa or with on-the-ground experience, Africa 2050 will offer attendees an inspirational overview of the continent's tech space via interactive discussions with those intimately familiar with the sector's challenges and triumphs.
