The Design Indaba has once again come and gone. The 2013 edition saw many of the world's brightest talents from across various creative industries descend on Cape Town, South Africa for the conference and expo. In our
special Design Indaba section,
Terry Levin covers most of what went down at the conference. Have a look at some of the pics from the
fashion shows to all the latest
designer innovations at the expo.
As I write this weeks column, the
Kenyan elections is currently taking place. All eyes are on Kenya after a political, economic, and humanitarian crisis erupted in Kenya after president Mwai Kibaki was declared the winner of the presidential election held in 2007. With 3 TV correspondents and an online reporter,
Al Jazeera covers the elections and provide viewers with in-depth reporting and analysis - before, during, and after the elections.
In other news from around the continent,
Forbes Africa magazine launches its first ever
digital edition. The app is available on Windows 8, Android and iOS. In Uganda, the
deadline for SIM card registration has been exteneded until 29 May 2013. Alliance Media has been chosen to erect billboards in Kenya as
Visa and Shell have teamed up to unveil a new campaign.
Have a great good week!
