Take the most innovative / successful / creative / ambitious thinkers and entrepreneurs in the Internet space, and ask them to share their stories, ideas and predictions for the future in a format that is fresh, relevant and engaging. The result: Net Prophet.
Net Prophet is South Africa’s biggest technology start-up event, and forms the largest gathering of tech entrepreneurs, VC’s and tech enthusiasts on the continent. Delegates come from all over the country to be inspired by presentations from both local and international innovative technology entrepreneurs and thought leaders.
Net Prophet was started in Cape Town, South Africa by the RAMP Foundation – a non-profit entity created by the RAMP Group, as a means of social investment within the local Internet based economy.
With government backing education and development in the areas of science and technology, RAMP Group recognised the need to build a culture of entrepreneurship and innovation, particularly in the area of web-based business, essentially aiding those with the right aptitude for ‘Making business $sense of the Internet’. The name Net Prophet was decided on as it would give credence to the quality of our local industry leaders (as an added bonus, it doubles as both ‘Prophet’ and ‘Prophet’ when spoken of).
The conference is free to attend, but delegates need to register beforehand in order to attend.
