Look forward to an evening of inspiring talks and superb conversation with smart and talented web, mobile, media and marketing people.

The event will be at the Wild Fig, one of our favourite 27 dinner locations, starting at around 6 for 6.30pm till late (click here for directions).

This 27 Dinner will feature talks from Christine Bombal, Digital Marketing Manager at Old Mutual; and Eric Edelstein, who has founded, invested in and sold numerous successful internet businesses.

Food will be available for meat lovers and veggies, so all are welcome!

The Talks:

• Christine Bombal: Social media is a notoriously difficult nut to crack for financial services companies. But is there a way to do this? Does everyone need a social media strategy? Christine will share an innovative approach on engaging with customers digitally. She will also share some case studies, including the exciting Old Mutual Entrepreneur’s Guide.
• Mark Kaigwa will NO LONGER be speaking about mobile media and entertainment from a Kenyan perspective DUE TO A SUDDEN BOUT OF CHICKEN POX.
• Eric Edelstein will be speaking sharing his insights and learnings on startup culture, funding and innovation after recently spending 4 months in Silicon Valley.
• MC: Sir Lord Dave Duarte : co-founder of 27dinners
