Gauteng on the digital technology bandwagon
The Gauteng Provincial Government (GPG) will host the Technology Innovation Conference 2018 at the Gallagher Conference Centre on the 1st and 2nd February 2018. The event is themed ‘Building Innovative Technology Ecosystems for a Modernised City Region’.
The conference will bring together ICT experts and decision makers from across the public, private sectors and from academia to analyse the wave of digital and technological innovation that is sweeping across the South African economy. This is also to track progress on plans to modernised government services through Information Communications Technology (ICT) to improve service delivery in Gauteng. Whilst, GPG will share its future plans identifying areas of collaboration and direct investment from both the public and private sectors, within the framework of the Transformation, Modernisation, and Re-industrialisation (TMR) programme as set by Premier David Makhura.
Gauteng is on course in creating an integrated city region characterised by social cohesion and economic inclusion, the leading economy in the continent underpinned by smart and green industrial and socio-economic development.
