Don’t miss these awesome speakers at My World of Tomorrow this month

The My World of Tomorrow conference will be happening from the 22nd through to the 24th of October at the Sandton Convention Centre, and will see business and technology leaders collaborating around the theme of “Africa’s Internet of Things”.

Over the course of the three-day conference various leaders from business and the technology sector will address attendees on topics ranging from forensics to the impact technology is having on humanity.

As is the case with events of this magnitude, getting around can be a mad rush so we’ve taken the liberty of showcasing some of the speakers that will be at the My World of Tomorrow conference to help you plan who you’d like to see.
