Putting African Tech on the Global Stage
Africa Tech Festival provides a 360 view of how tech and strategy evolution is reshaping Africa’s diverse industry sectors - from telecoms, financial services, healthcare, government, SME and start-ups, retail, manufacture and beyond.
Expect world-class speakers, industry leading content, two international exhibitions, and outcome-driven networking focussed on how tech integration is delivering real-world impact through enterprise excellence and socioeconomic development.

“The Africa Tech Festival presents a platform for different innovative minds to come together to explore and exchange tech solutions for Africa and the rest of the world. This global platform will not only afford us an opportunity to learn best practices but also afford our SMEs to market their innovative solutions to the more than 15,000 visitors from across the globe. We are committed to ensuring that Africa does not become a mere consumer of digital solutions developed elsewhere but a meaningful participant in the digital economy by being a supplier of solutions and infrastructure that are tried and tested in our shores. We are looking forward to welcoming the world to our shores.”
Ms Nonkqubela Jordan-Dyani, Director-General of the Department of Communications and Digital Technologies.
