London Stock Exchange welcomes Africa Tech Summit 2025
Today, the London Stock Exchange welcomed Africa Tech Summit London to open the market, marking the fifth consecutive year the Summit has partnered with London Stock Exchange, which kicks off with an inspiring market ceremony.
Now in its ninth edition, Africa Tech Summit London forms part of a wider series of high-level global events connecting tech leaders, investors, and innovators across the African tech ecosystem. Launched in 2016 to bridge the gap between African ventures and global capital, the Summit has evolved into a premier platform for investment, collaboration, and thought leadership.
To date, Africa Tech Summit has hosted over 20 events, engaging more than 20,000 stakeholders - from startups and scale-ups to corporates, governments, and venture capital firms - facilitating partnerships, investments, and long-term growth opportunities across the continent.
This year’s London edition convenes 300+ investors, founders, and ecosystem leaders to explore scaling strategies, economic resilience, and emerging opportunities for African tech. A key highlight is the Investment Showcase, featuring high-potential, investment-ready ventures across Africa.
The 2025 edition is proudly supported by the London Stock Exchange, Amazon Web Services, Bank of America, Fincra, Goodwin, Flutterwave, Tola Mobile, the UK Department for Business and Trade, Payaza, Wimbart, and TLP Advisory.
As a global financial and innovation hub, London remains a critical nexus for connecting Africa’s most promising ventures with international capital and strategic alliances - and Africa Tech Summit London continues to lead this charge.
