With the imminent digital switchover and hype around high quality mobile services, it's time to change gear and seize opportunities in Africa's media and broadcasting industry. Broadcasters, telco's, media houses, content aggregators and mobile marketing services, amongst others, will be gathering for the Africa Media & Broadcasting Congress from 29th November to 3rd December in Johannesburg.
