Webinar Description

Format: Live, online webinar

‍Duration: 1 hour

‍Region: Africa

‍Delivered by: RealTyme, in partnership with Smart Africa Digital Academy (SADA)

Cost: Free to enrol

‍

Session Overview

Session objective: To establish digital sovereignty as a matter of governance and institutional accountability — not a technical project — and to provide participants with a first operational framework.

‍

What You Will Gain

✅ A candid assessment of your country's actual level of digital control, independent of what any strategy document states

✅ A framework for surfacing dependencies that institutions frequently overlook — infrastructure ownership, jurisdictional exposure, and control over encryption keys

✅ An understanding of two converging risks: structural dependency on locked-in vendors, and the approaching point at which currently-encrypted national data becomes readable

✅ A starting framework for mapping sovereignty gaps and sequencing institutional priorities

‍

Who Should Attend

Policymakers, regulators, national cybersecurity authorities, and senior public sector executives who want a practical, actionable route from sovereignty principles to real operational control.

‍

Digital sovereignty is a matter of governance and institutional accountability, not a technical checkbox — and it is becoming central to how national autonomy is defined in a digital-first world.
