African Peering and Interconnection Forum: Unlocking Africa’s Regional Interconnection

The internet society is for 3 days sponsoring a conference :
The African Peering and Interconnection Forum: Unlocking Africa’s Regional Interconnection

Now for most that know me, I started my career working for a startup ISP that has since grown way bigger than I had imagined. I also happen to have been around when we had to technically justify peering and answer questions like what is internet peering, why peer, how does it work etc etc...and finally the KIXP was set up.

Im interestingly caught up in another transformation (IP/Buusiness transformation for a large telco). so see you there...

I moved on quite a bit, but the opportunities to catch up with old friends is always welcome.
