A one-day African Focused Digital Identity Symposium

An engaging day focused on exploring digital identity in the SADC region. Presentations and panel discussion sharing innovations, challenges, and solutions tailored for Africa.

The SADC region, despite its potential, has untapped opportunities and unresolved challenges in the realm of digital identity. To address this gap, the first day is positioned as a structured symposium to spotlight these issues. It serves as a beacon, drawing together thinkers, leaders, and innovators who are reshaping the digital identity landscape in Africa.

A two-day OpenSpace unConference

An immersive two-day exploration, inspired by the Internet Identity Workshop™ diving deep into the world of digital identity. We dispense with traditional keynotes, and engage in authentic collaborations through a co-created agenda. Examine the intricate facets of identity: people, organizations, and even the journey of products. Connect, track, support, and cross boundaries. Investments in standards, protocols, and systems find tangible applications here. Discover, Learn, Collaborate.

Like the Internet Identity Workshop, we will co-create the agenda together live each morning. The Open Space unConference process will be professionally facilitated by Heidi Nobantu Saul and Kaliya (Identity Woman) Young. Having participants to co-create agendas, ensures the discourse remains current and relevant.

Through dozens of sessions, lunches & two evening meals provided by our generous sponsors (all included in the ticket), participants have plenty of opportunities to exchange ideas and make new professional connections. The Open Space unConference format is perfect for a rapidly moving field where the organizing team cannot predetermine what needs to be discussed.

The Open Space unConference format breaks the mold of traditional events, creating a space where every voice can be heard, from startups to industry giants.
