IST-Africa 2009 Conference & Exhibition

06 - 08 May 2009, Uganda

Sponsors

European research activities are structured around consecutive multi-annual programmes, or so-called Framework Programmes. FP7 sets out the priorities - including the ICT priority - for the period 2007-2013. ICT is fully open to international co-operation with the aim to join forces for addressing major challenges where significant added value is expected to be gained from a worldwide R&D cooperation.

In this context, the European Commission co-funded the IST-Africa Initiative in order to promote the participation of African organisations to the ICT programme.

IST-Africa 2009 is Hosted by the Government of Uganda through the Ministry of ICT.

Major Sponsors include Ericsson Uganda.

Technical Co-Sponsors include IEEE Region 8 (Europe, Middle East, Africa), IEEE South Africa Section, IEEE Ghana Section, IEEE Nigeria Section, IEEE Nigeria Computer Chapter and IEEE UKRI Computer Chapter.
