The Future Charter 18 August 2011
The Future Charter
The CIO Forum is hosting an hour and half round table conversation.
The aim of which is to bring together a group of emerging young leaders to build common future goals.
The discussion is aimed at issues that concern those in their 20s and 30s.
The issues are broader than Information Technology and we welcome graduates from universities in the
Cape who want to build a future charter. We will look at how technology and other factors such as
education are affecting poverty and job creation.
The Future Charter will be a large graphic poster that contains the issues transcribed from the
conversations. We will be asking those who participate to sign it and will be using it as part of
wider tour across the country to get young professionals to add their views and thoughts.
We are inviting young IT professionals and graduates of information systems, information technology,
computer science, software engineering and computer engineering to discuss the future of the IT profession
in South Africa. We are compiling a manifesto called "The Future Charter" to express the voice of young IT
professionals interested in issues such as transformation, skills, job opportunities, leadership,
qualification and economic growth. We would like to hear the voice of those who have entered the market in
recent years to hear their experiences and views. This event is open to all those interested in the state of
the region, industry, youth development and who aspire to become future leaders.
