An integral part of the Mobile Web Africa series, Mobile Web West Africa returns to Lagos on April 24th, 25th and 26th at the Oriental Hotel. Following the sold-out inaugural event in 2011, this year’s edition has been expanded to three days and promises to further establish itself as the place to share knowledge and do business.

An overflowing agenda of interaction and presentations has been created in order to dissect the core areas of the mobile web and applications opportunities. The main two-day conference will touch on key topics including mobile as a tool for empowerment and social good, mobile and music, mobile marketing, and the growth of mobile social media. A session dedicated exclusively to the development of applications for mobile phones will be held on April 24th and there is no charge for app developers to attend.

The event brings together the very best local and international speakers; each one is an expert who will either share a story for you to learn from or a perspective for you to appreciate. Together, they will create the stimulus behind the discussions and interactions that will advance the sector. The 2012 speaker faculty includes:
