AIS’20 will be held online from 14 - 18 September 2020
Following the worldwide outbreak and concerns regarding COVID-19 (coronavirus), we have had to change our plans with regard to holding the Africa Internet Summit 2020 (AIS’20). The meeting was to be held in the Democratic Republic of Congo from May 31 to June 12, 2020.
AFRINIC has been monitoring the developments regarding coronavirus and taking measures to minimise the impact on the community, members, staff and meeting participants. Given the current situation, AFRINIC, together with its event organising committee partners – the local host (Internet Service Providers Association in DRC (ISPA-DRC), and AfNOG – have decided that it is best to postpone the meeting to a later date. We will continue monitoring the situation and adopting precautionary measures to ensure everyone’s wellbeing. We will also continue to communicate any decisions taken, and will advise on new meeting dates and the way forward.
