We launched the third season of Table Manners for Robots. The show format has been upgraded. We had a ton of feedback and questions from the live audience. Unfortunately, in the excitement of things, I didn't get to many of the comments and questions. But, I made a promise to provide answers to all questions in the next and future shows.

Videsha Proothveerajh, CEO and Chairperson of the Board, Lexis Nexis South Africa, opened up the discussion with a frank and open discussion on the potential she see's in Africa. She talked about some of the exciting work she is leading, together with some of her personal experiences as a mother and CEO.

Dr Nick Bradshaw, the leader behind AI Expo Africa, shared valuable insight on the state of 4IR in Africa. I was curious to understand the state of progress in Africa together with Africa's unique contributions to the development of 4IR technologies. Nick addressed my questions and left me with a lot of confidence about where things are headed.
