“The SAOUG team are doing an amazing job re-inventing and re-invigorating the Oracle landscape in Africa. They have created multiple opportunities for the vendor, partners and customers to connect and are making an impact on the brand visibility locally and digitally. Keep up the great work team!”

Brett Primo, Oracle, Master Principal Account Cloud Engineering (ACE)

“I highly recommend that the Oracle community attend the SAOUG Conference. It’s a place where you get to learn about Oracle’s strategy and roadmaps for their flagship products, and how their partners can help you align your business and evolve your operations to meet your customers demands. It’s also a great event to network and share ideas.”

Wesley Chetty, Competency Head – Oracle Operations at iOCO

“Fudgelearn had the incredible opportunity to attend the SAOUG Conference. A remarkable blend of knowledge, connection, and… this event wasn’t just about Oracle; it was about people, connections, and a shared commitment to growth.”

– Tony Cook, Founder and CEO at Fudgelearn
