iWeek XV: please diarise

Dear Industry representatives

 

Heads-up - iWeek XV 2016 is heading back to Joburg!  

    

iWeek, South Africa's leading annual Internet industry conference celebrates
its 15th Year of existence at the Wanderers Club, Johannesburg, South Africa
from 19 - 23 September 2016. This is such an auspicious occasion as co-hosts
ISPA and INX-ZA look back on the enormous changes that have taken place in
the industry since that first small gathering in 2001.

 

The conference and the audience have evolved along the way and for some
years now, the event has been supported by a number of partners, which
include the Wireless Access Providers' Association (WAPA), the ZA Central
Registry, the ZA Domain Name Authority (ZADNA), and South African chapters
of the Internet Society. 2015 saw a bumper year in the number of delegates
passing through the doors.

 

What's more, ISPA will be celebrating its 20th birthday and WAPA its 10th
birthday. INX-ZA will also be celebrating the 20th birthday of the
Johannesburg Internet exchange. This is therefore the perfect occasion to
represent and market your organisation as the industry comes together for
this unique year of celebration.  

 

A wide variety of tutorials, seminars, training sessions and workshops
running in parallel to the plenary events will be provided by the partners,
ensuring that a range of interesting and relevant topics are presented to
industry.

 

Both ISPA and WAPA hold their Annual General Meetings as part of iWeek,
attracting members from both organisations to the event. Other participants
include the Wi-Fi Forum SA and the South African ICT Industry Associations'
Forum. Attendees to iWeek each year are ISP and WISP representatives,
managers and business owners. In addition, iWeek also attracts a broad
selection of Internet governance stakeholders, the legal fraternity,
hardware vendors, academia, representatives from non-profit organisations
working in the Internet space, and important government representatives.

 

There are a wide variety of sponsorship opportunities available to suit the
pocket including a number of cost- effective exhibition tables.  Sponsorship
allows your organisation to market its services to the core Internet
audience in South Africa, and position itself as an active player in the
industry. It provides an excellent opportunity to network with leading
industry stakeholders, developers and customers.  If interested, please
