Gundani says 2024 will probably be the year in which businesses will define actual use cases for the technology. 

MultiChoice recently unveiled a new Showmax, a R3bn investment between the pay TV group and NBCUniversal. The investment shows the promise that large players are seeing in Africa’s online streaming market.

Topics of discussion include development of technology infrastructure in SA; opportunities for businesses; development of video streaming and how technology companies can define the use of AI. 

This is the second in a two-part discussion with Gundani. 

• Business Day Spotlight is a TimesLIVE Production.
