The information technology (IT) company IBM’s second research laboratory in Africa in Braamfontein, Johannesburg, is a “seed for change and a catalyst for the technology revolution” taking place, says IBM Research - Africa director Dr Solomon Assefa. The laboratory is located at the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits) Tshimologong Digital Innovation Hub, which is a precinct developed by the Wits Johannesburg Centre for Software Engineering (JCSE) and a network of partners.
