[AfrICANN-discuss] Web review January 15, 2015

[ymshana2003]

Thank you for this. 
In my opinion,  there is a need for marketing acumen within Africa that can activate global branding. ...this cannot be done in the Hubs and Labs. ..

Time to play this was yesterday. ..we have to grow legs and not heads to enter the race. ..

New Year Greetings

Yassin Mshana
