• Smart cities and digital urban planning in Africa
• Agrotech and the digital transformation of African agriculture
• Cybersecurity and the digital sovereignty of African nations

A rich and varied programme

Over 3 intensive days, GITEX Africa offers high-level conferences, masterclasses, cutting-edge technology demonstrations, startup pitches and unique networking opportunities. Iconic figures from the global tech world and Africa's digital leaders will share their vision for Africa's digital future.

The GITEX Startup Movement is particularly anticipated, with dozens of African startups competing for prizes and investments that could change their trajectory.
