 Our tech-preneur community will join a candid discussion on what collaboration looks like between corporates in the areas of regulation/compliance, taxes, human resources, ICT solutions and more.

Besides the collaboration goal, the 2019 edition of ‘Built to Last in Africa’ will bring partners, entrepreneurs and other attendees to shake hands over deals during a live session at the event tagged “Deal Day.”
