A NEW EVENT FOR A NEW ERA: AfricaCom 2013 hosts the entire African digital ecosystem

WiMAX Africa Operators Summit

Monday 11th November 2013

We are currently working on the 2013 Masterclass programme and speaker line-up but you can view our last year’s agenda below.

In 2011 the WiMAX Forum hosted its first WiMAX Africa Summit at AfricaCom. The event drew more than 85 attendees, including representatives from 18 WiMAX operators, to discuss the opportunity for WiMAX in Africa. Attendees were treated to a full program including speakers from WiMAX operators, equipment and solutions vendors, members of the African investment community and WiMAX Forum staff.

WiMAX Africa 2013 will again bring together the region’s WiMAX community to meet, exchange ideas and develop business and cooperative relationships. The event will highlight the opportunities, challenges and strategies involved in operating a profitable WiMAX network in Africa.
