Dear Chapter Leaders and Members,

 

As you know, the Africa Internet Summit (AIS) 2018 will take place from 29 
April to 11 May 2018 in Dakar, Senegal. This multi-stakeholder annual event is 
organized by the African Network Information Centre (AFRINIC) and the African 
Network Operators Group (AFNOG).

 

Launched in The Gambia in 2012, the AIS brings together global and regional 
Internet industry stakeholders including Af* (AfriNIC, AfNOG, AfTLD, AfChix, 
AfricaCert ...)  and I* (ISOC, ICANN, ...) for a series of seminars, workshops, 
tutorials, and panels discussions for sharing ICT and Internet knowledge within 
the African region.

 

As for all AIS since 2012, the Internet Society (ISOC) will be holding several 
activities at AIS 2018 as part of its continued support for developing and 
securing the Internet in Africa and the efforts to mobilize its Community
