Ocean Innovation Africa 2019 to bring together tech startups, players in sea protection
OceanHub Africa, which claims to be the first African ocean-impact catalyst, will next month host a one-day event in Cape Town, which aims to gather key regional players of the ocean economy and tech ecosystem.
Ocean Innovation Africa 2019 will take place on 27 November at Workshop17 in the V&A Waterfront, Cape Town, between 12pm and 5.30pm followed by a networking cocktail. The cost per ticket is R830.
The idea is to help existing ocean-minded initiatives to grow by providing them with the resources they need to succeed and by bringing together the key players from the ocean-impact economy.
