Techpoint Inspired 2019 | Techpoint Inspired | 1 June 2019 | Pistis Conference Center, 1 Resurrection Drive, Lekki-Epe. Expr. way, Lagos Nigeria

Africa is on a technological wave with global acclaim and accolades, startups, small businesses, innovations and people from the continent doing great things the world over. But these innovations are not happening fast enough for Africa to catch up with the rest of the world.

Technology will unarguably help Africa leapfrog challenges to a position of global excellence and dominance. However, there are multiple kinks to getting to that point where it is the biggest enabler on the continent.

Beyond being the biggest technology gathering of technology enthusiasts and stakeholders in Africa, Techpoint Inspired is a state of mind. It is a place where Africans, young and old alike, can participate in action-fueled discussions to shape the future of the continent with technology and innovations.

All the topics and subject matters are interwoven in a fashion that highlights the African technology and innovation ecosystem.

Over the last 2 years of its existence, Techpoint Inspired has been a choice destination for participants interested in the result-driven amalgamation of discovery, innovation, technology, Internet, startups for Africa’s development.

This year’s edition promises to be better, bigger and filled with more speakers from Africa and around the world, insightful conversations, keynotes, exhibitions and experiences, and immense networking opportunities.

You cannot afford to miss all these things!
