[kictanet] [Fwd: Satellite Wireless Broadband & Voip Forum 12-13 July 2007]

[alice]

AITEC Africa, in collaboration with leading suppliers of these
technologies, is hosting SatWiBB East Africa and the African VoIP Forum
to provide marketing and education platforms to promote effective
roll-out of satellite and wireless technology throughout Africa. The
theme for this year's event is **/" Broadband Bridges Across
/****/Africa: First & Last Mile Solutions". /**These conference follow
the highly successful WiMAX & CDMA Forum held in Johannesburg in April
2006 (see http://new.aitecafrica.com/WiMAX_CDMA_Forum) and Wireless
Broadband East & West Africa in Nairobi and Lagos in December 2006 (see
http://new.aitecafrica.com/node/432).

**Introduction******

Satellites still provide a communications lifeline for a large
proportion of Africa’s internal and external traffic. And wireless
broadband technologies are increasingly providing the continent’s
intermediate and last mile links. SatWiBB Africa is the first conference
to cover both ends of this increasingly integrated and converging
communications paradigm.

SatWiBB East & West Africa will provide practical business and
technology briefings to empower resellers, service providers and users
to maximize their returns on the increasing investment that they will be
making in satellite and wireless broadband technology over the coming
years.

By providing a platform for vendors, service providers and users to
network and share knowledge, the conference will act as a catalyst to
stimulate take-up of the right technologies to multiply connectivity
across the region.

In addition, to usher in the conference there will be a */Wireless
Security Preview Masterclass/* on the 31^st May 2007 to be presented by
Maiendra Moodley, Security Advisor, South Africa Reserve Bank
(*/attached find his profile/*).
