Tour of the new Joburg Centre for Software Engineering in South Africa
Director Yvette Breytenbach recently travelled to South Africa where a highlight was a personal tour with Professor Barry Dwolatsky of the new Joburg Centre for Software Engineering, at the heart of the Tshimologong Digital Innovation Precinct. This brainchild of Professor Dwolatsky has the vision of driving urban renewal in Braamfontein in addition to its mission to support innovation, skills acquisition and youth entrepreneurial ventures. The premises are housed in a number of recycled buildings acquired by Wits University. A major tenant is IBM Research Lab Africa and a highlight was meeting Watson!
