Cisco to be an anchor partner of MyWorld of Tomorrow Africa

The platform promises to display the best in class of global technological innovation by bringing together inventive and experiential technologies to the African continent. Cisco joins Samsung which is also an anchor sponsor of the event.

"We're excited that Cisco has shown a belief in what we do. Our target audience has mainly been large enterprises; however this event has a distinct customer and end-user focus and we are confident it will bridge the gap between enterprise and the average man on the street," said Matthew Blewett, Business Connexion's COO.

Den Sullivan, head of architectures and enterprise, emerging markets of Cisco, said: "Cisco understands the importance of making technology easily accessible to all and it is this vision that prompted us to participate as a partner of MyWorld of Tomorrow. We will be active participants at the event, not only as exhibitors, but also providing attendees with the latest information and overview about Cisco's focussed strategy around the Internet of Everything (IoE) and how it will impact on and drive all areas of business operations as well as the lives of citizen's throughout Africa in the future."

Five diverse zones

MyWorld of Tomorrow will feature five diverse zones to address the needs of all aspects of technology, ranging from consumer technology to enterprise technology. The three-day event will also feature a Conference Zone where the industry leaders will speak.

"Technology is no longer only accessible to a select few; it is a driving force in our daily lives. MyWorld of Tomorrow provides a diverse offering, which makes technology available to various stakeholders and this convergence of markets is what distinguishes it from other events," concluded Sullivan.

Den Sullivan will feature as a speaker at MWOT conference zone.
