About the event
Over the years the Innovation Summit — which has now developed into the Innovation Festival Durban — has served as a platform on which innovation in eThekwini can be profiled and celebrated. Innovators can connect and collaborate with corporates, academia, government, and other stakeholders who in turn can profile their own innovation and connect with one another. It is a space where innovation experts can bring new ideas to the city, and where workshops and upskilling sessions can be held. This festival, which targets up to 300 people, is aimed at being a premier gathering charting the way for the 4th Industrial Revolution. The programme will include keynote speakers, industry experts, panel debates, demonstrations, robotic and gaming workshops, as well as innovation across sectors from grassroots social innovation to ground-breaking firsts.
