DEMO08 Africa Panel Video
Erik Hersman has found the video of our Africa panel. It is long - over 30 minutes - and watching it again I think I could’ve done better with the opportunity, but hopefully some of what we said got through. The third person on the panel is the lovely Juliana Rotich of Afromusing.
I’d love your comments…














We all do the best we possibly can at any point in time, especially you. In that same position I don’t know what I would’ve said any different, however I think you handled yourself just fine. Good job Mike and thanks for representing SA.

Thanks for the mention, Mike! We appreciate it!
Vinny & the SynthaSite team!
Mike and the New Media Mechanics! Great job on stage and super coverage of some SA startups. Huge thanks for including Zoopy in the mix and your comments certainly made us a little prouder to be doing what we’re doing - especially from the tip of Africa (though not from the East Rand hahaha).
Nice work Mike, well done on behalf of us all. Would you mind if we downloaded/uploaded a copy of the vid to Zoopy?
Good job. Nice to see some of our web entrepreneurs making on to the world stage!

I have to agree with Tyler, Jason and Jonathan - you did a good job Mike, and yes, we do not need handouts, but constructive input. Well done mate.
