provides unrivalled insight, networking and business opportunities for African and international tech leaders and investors who want to drive growth in Africa.
The 6th annual event will bring together African and international players to do business under one roof.
It was launched in 2016 to share globally the growth in the tech ecosystem across Africa. The mobile first continent provides opportunities that previously did not exist for investors, entrepreneurs and corporates. The vision for the first Africa Tech Summit London was simply to bring together these great companies and initiatives across the continent and connect them with international ventures, investors and entrepreneurs who were truly focused on business and investment in Africa. Due to the success of the London events and feedback from the outstanding delegation that attends the summits Africa Tech Summit Kigali was created for 2018.
