First there was the Internet, which connected people with people.
Then came the Internet of Things, which connected 4IR technologies with machines. And now there is the Internet of Everything, which connects people with people, people with machines and machines with machines.
As a leading proponent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) in Africa, UJ recognises the potential of the Internet of Everything (IoE) to make universal connectivity more relevant and valuable than ever before, turning information into action that creates new capabilities and unprecedented opportunities for people, communities, businesses and countries.
Already we are applying 4IR to both our teaching and learning, using it to advance not just ideas, but skills, expertise and capacity. We believe in the not-too-distant future, people everywhere will experience real benefits and meaningful change in their lives as a result of 4IR.
