The seventh edition of Africa Tech Summit Nairobi, powered by Raenest, will take place on February 12th & 13th, 2025, at the Sarit Expo Centre. Now the largest tech event in the region, the B2B Summit, exhibition, and awards will connect over 2000 industry leaders, corporates, investors and international delegations.

“We are thrilled to continue as the headline sponsor of Africa Tech Summit Nairobi. This platform is pivotal in celebrating African innovation and connecting the continent to the global economy. At Raenest, our vision is to empower African businesses and professionals by simplifying how they manage and move money globally.
With Raenest and Geegpay, we’re not just creating financial solutions – we’re building a bridge that enables Africa’s entrepreneurs, freelancers, and startups to thrive on the global stage. Being part of this summit allows us to amplify our impact and further support Africa’s dynamic tech ecosystem.”
Following the success of the past events, Africa Tech Summit Nairobi 2025 will feature four key track themes: Africa Money & DeFi Summit, Africa Climate Tech & Investment Summit, Africa Startup Summit, and the Africa Mobile & App Summit.
The summit will deliver a packed agenda of fireside chats, panel discussions, keynote addresses, and masterclass sessions, creating a platform for knowledge sharing and networking. Delegates will have access to showcase opportunities such as the Africa Tech Summit Awards, (deadline to enter 5th December) which celebrate outstanding achievements across the ecosystem, and the Investment Showcase, (deadline to submit 19th December) connecting startups with leading African and global investors.
