The unveiling of Digital Innovation & Creative Excellence (DICE) on Wednesday, November 8, 2023, will be witnessed by critical stakeholders in the technology industry.
DICE is an initiative of Beyond Limits in partnership with key stakeholders in the tech, business, and creative ecosystem.
The company, established by an expert in the field, Ms Juliet Ehimuan, has themed the launching of the initiative as Solve for Africa: Co-Creating a Tech-Enabled Future.
Those expected to grace the occasion include the Minister of Communications and the Digital Economy, Nigeria, Mr Bosun Tijani; the founder of MainStreet Technologies, Ms Funke Opeke; and the General Partner at Ventures Platform and Chairman of Board, Lagos Angel Network, Mr Kola Aina; among others.
The event is interspersed with a range of features including pre- and post-event networking sessions allowing attendees to connect and exchange ideas.
Fireside chats, AMA sessions, lightning talks, and spoken word and music performances will serve to inspire, invigorate, and illuminate the audience, all with a keen focus on the ecosystem.
The ambience promises to be organic, personal, and exclusive, ensuring that attendees depart feeling inspired, armed with fresh ideas, and empowered by new strategic connections.
“Our aim is to convene the brightest minds, provide a melting pot of ideas, and inspire attendees to co-create a brighter, tech-driven future for Africa,” Ms Ehimuan said.
Recall that Ms Ehimuan recently transitioned from her role as the Director for West Africa at Google after a notable 12-year tenure. She is now focused on driving digital transformation across Africa and growing the African tech ecosystem.
“We are at the cusp of a technological revolution in Africa. Harnessing this potential requires collective effort, innovation, and synergy among diverse stakeholders,” she remarked.
