The South Africa Mathematica Tour 2010 is a unique opportunity to
experience the advancements of Mathematica
<http://www.wolfram.com/products/mathematica/>  7. Designed for both
experts and novices in any technical computing field, the tour showcases
the breakthroughs that broaden Mathematica's scope and explores its
global impact on a wide range of areas, from engineering and finance to
research and education. 

Wolfram Research trainers will be on hand offering workshops and
seminars where participants can learn about Wolfram technologies and how
to integrate them into their work, all the while becoming more familiar
with available resources and Mathematica's key capabilities.

Who Should Attend

Anyone with an interest in the impact of computational technology on
education, research, and industry would benefit from our tour,
regardless of the participant's previous knowledge of Mathematica. Those
not yet familiar with Mathematica will gain an overview of the system
and discover the wide range of fields it addresses, such as engineering,
sciences, and mathematics, to name a few. Experienced users will get
firsthand experience with the latest breakthroughs in Mathematica
technology.
