As Fairweather was responsible for launching the first paid iPad edition of a weekly newspaper in South Africa, he will be speaking about the potential that mobile apps have to improve productivity in enterprise.
Instant messaging service WeChat has been making waves the world over with 600 million registered users and 100 million active daily users. Brett Loubser, who heads up WeChat for Africa, will speak on Native application technology for different devices, “has the time come to consolidate?”
