[sdnog] Reminder: Register for the AFRINIC webinar: "Don't Get Left Behind: Inside the African Government IPv6 Accelerator'

Dear Colleagues,

As governments across Africa accelerate their digital transformation agendas, the transition to IPv6 is no longer simply a technical upgrade; it is becoming a strategic imperative for digital sovereignty, national resilience, and sustainable Internet growth.

Join us for an insightful webinar, "Don't Get Left Behind: Inside the African Government IPv6 Accelerator," where government agencies, regulators, policymakers, and telecommunications operators will gain practical insights into Africa's flagship initiative to support public-sector IPv6 adoption.

   • Grasp how the African Government IPv6 Accelerator is structured and how your MDA can enrol and progress through it.
   • Benchmark your country's IPv6 readiness against regional peers and global mandates.
   • Leave with a defensible case for your leadership on the cost of inaction versus the cost of acting now, and a clear next step for your MDA.

Take the IPv6 Readiness Self-Assessment before the webinar.
It is a 2-minute self-diagnostic across six dimensions of institutional readiness: leadership awareness, technical capacity, planning maturity, infrastructure readiness, vendor relationships, and deployment activity. Your individual responses are confidential. Aggregate data informs the programme.

Your tier score lands in your inbox when you submit.

Why take it before the webinar:
You walk into the session with your own data, not a generic frame
When we walk through what each tier means, you will know exactly which paragraph applies to your MDA
You will have the result to forward to your DG or Permanent Secretary the same week, not the week after
