Digital Africa Conference & Exhibition event has been a meeting place for technology leaders, influencers and enthusiasts. These various audiences have ample opportunity to mingle and participate in pivotal discourses to address Africa’s technology eco-system development. Focusing in particular, on the Continent’s intellectual capital and potential if adequate investment is directed toward capacity building and innovativeness. The event anchors on harnessing the exponential power of diversity, through the confluence of positive energy, ideas and people connecting during the course of its 3-day programs.

The conference kicks-off its 9th Edition from, June 22 to 24 2021. Themed “Building a New Africa with AI & Blockchain”. This forum will examine the potential impacts of these technologies on Sub Saharan Africa, towards advancing its goals for sustainable economic development that provides commensurate improvement in the quality of life for all its citizens. To this end, the event channels the vision to change the narrative that Africa is comfortable being a passive consumer of technology innovations created by others to one espousing its efforts to become an active contributor in the unfolding digital revolution.
