Stay tuned as we finalise the programme and bring together leading voices in media, technology, and journalism.
“…It is a ‘must attend’ session for all media practitioners who are aspiring for growth. A great platform for learning, relearning and unlearning.”
“It was a pleasure spending three days with peers in the media industry. This was my first time attending a conference like this, and it felt incredibly rewarding. It reminded me that there’s still so much to learn about the media business.”
“The Digital Media Africa Conference gave practical learnings that can and will make a genuine impact on our business. There was a real warmth in the room and attendees and organisers were great at creating an environment to connect and learn from each other.”
“The conference shaped my perspective on the possibilities and opportunities presented by a digital-first mindset within the media ecosystem in Africa. It also reaffirmed my belief in the media’s transformative power as a platform for generating impactful content and driving meaningful change.”
“Great event as a sponsor and as a speaker. PressReader was able to liaise with many Eastern African publishers and start discussions on how our digital newsstand can help them reach new audience.”
“…The 2024 edition in Nairobi offered unparalleled insights into the innovative solutions needed to drive African news publishers forward. The conference successfully tackled critical areas such as accelerating digital transformation for African news publishers, securing digital revenue, and leveraging AI in newsrooms.”
