Virtual Salon: ICT Access & IoT in Low-Resource Settings
Channel: Engineering for Change
Date: 22/11/2019

Engineering for Change (E4C) and IEEE are pleased to present a Virtual Salon which focuses on ICT access and IoT in low-resource settings.

E4C’s Virtual Salon series is a partnership with IEEE and IEEE in Africa Strategy. The Salon topics are informed by the professional and regional interests of the sections. To overcome connectivity challenges, the Sections schedule their meeting during this time at locations with high-quality internet connectivity and join the salon via E4C’s webinar platform. The salon is 1.5 hour in length and includes three presenters and a moderator. The goal was to provide a broad cross-section of renewable tech solutions and focus on scaling approaches demonstrating success in the African context.

During the event, each panelist shared a brief overview of their organization. This was followed by a live (virtual) Q&A lead by the moderator.
