NRENs Leadership Indaba

Tuesday Nov 9, 2021, 9:30 AM → 12:30 PM Africa/Lusaka

Despite being non-profit in nature, an NREN is a business enterprise. Running a successful NREN requires leaders to use most of the business practices and principles that commercial businesses use. This This Indaba will focus on the subject on Running a Sustainable NREN and will use case studies from existing NRENs. After the presentations, participants will have an open session to discuss issues around the central theme.

This is a closed meeting. Connection details will be sent to invited participants. If you feel you need to attend, please get in touch at info@ubuntunet.net.
