London Stock Exchange welcomes Africa Tech Summit on its 10th Edition
Today, the London Stock Exchange welcomed Africa Tech Summit London to open the market, marking the sixth consecutive year Africa Tech Summit has partnered with the London Stock Exchange.
Celebrating its 10th edition, Africa Tech Summit London is part of a global series of high-level events connecting African tech leaders, investors, corporates, and policymakers across the ecosystem. Founded in 2016 to bridge the gap between African ventures and global capital, the Summit has grown into a leading platform for investment, collaboration, and industry insight.
To date, Africa Tech Summit has hosted more than 24 events, bringing together over 30,000 stakeholders from 80 countries across six continents — from startups and scale-ups to corporates, governments, and venture capital firms — facilitating partnerships, investment opportunities, and long-term growth across Africa’s tech sector.
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 from across multiple sectors.
The 2026 edition is proudly supported by Shekel Mobility, Goodwin, Verto, bPOWERd, Credable Group, HubSpot, Esca, Loobv and Ultrapay.
As a global financial and innovation hub, London remains a critical gateway for connecting Africa’s most promising ventures with international capital, strategic partnerships, and global markets. Africa Tech Summit London continues to strengthen these connections while showcasing the innovation and opportunity emerging across the continent.
