African Data Management Community

The African Data Management Community Forum provides a platform for all Data Enthusiasts to come together and build a stronger Data Management community in Africa and The Middle East. All Data Enthusiasts around the world are welcome!

Howard Diesel (President of Southern African DAMA and CEO of Modelware Systems) wants to reach out and provide data management knowledge and skills training to ensure that stakeholders are adequately skilled to support the required level of business transformation with data, information, knowledge and wisdom.

Our main aim is to provide value to you, the Data Enthusiasts, through appropriate presentations and discussions.

We have separated our Data Enthusiasts into four different personas to ensure that we address your needs and focus on your work requirements.

  • Data Citizens

  • Data Professionals

  • Knowledge-Driven Data Executives

  • EIM Managers

What value are we aiming to add to the lives of Data Professionals?

For Data Professionals who want to become a data management expert, our events will focus on the Data Management Learning Pathway that will enable you to become recognized as an industry thought leader within your field of specialization.

For Knowledge-Driven Data Leaders who want insight from data to make better business decisions, our events will focus on Knowledge-Driven Decision Support that ensures that your business is not leaving value on the table. You do not need to settle for good enough decisions!
