Inside Africa’s Most Strategic Tech Gathering – Tech Revolution Africa 2.0

Technology in Africa is no longer a future conversation. It is already shaping how people work, buy, learn, save, and access essential services, even in markets where infrastructure is still catching up.
But progress is not automatic.
Innovation needs structure. It needs trust, strong partnerships, and policies that understand the pace of change. Most importantly, it needs outcomes, not excitement. That thinking sits at the core of Tech Revolution Africa 2.0, happening January 30–31, 2026, at the Landmark Event Centre, Lagos.
Co-founded by David Ogebe and Glory Olamigoke, the conference brings together builders, investors, policymakers, and ecosystem leaders to focus on what matters most: execution, scale, and sustainability.
The first edition proved Africa doesn’t lack talent or ideas. What’s often missing is connection—between innovation and regulation, pilots and scale, funding and long-term growth. Tech Revolution Africa 2.0 is designed to close those gaps.
Top Voices on Stage
This year’s speaker lineup reflects the depth and diversity of Africa’s tech ecosystem, including:
Shoyinka Shodunke, CIO, MTN Nigeria
Iyin Aboyeji, Founding Partner, Future Africa
Dr. Salihu Ibrahim Dasuki, Special Assistant to the President of Nigeria (Office of the VP) on ICT Policy
Musty Mustapha, Co-founder & Managing Director, Kuda MFB
Chika Nwosu, Managing Director, PalmPay Nigeria
Peter Olusoji, Country Manager & MD, Ericsson Nigeria
Joshua Chibueze, Co-founder & CMO, PiggyVest
Ike Eze, Managing Partner, Beta Ventures
Babatunde Ogidan, CEO, Digicore
Together, they represent the conversations shaping Africa’s next phase of digital growth, from infrastructure and fintech to investment and policy.
What to Expect
Tech Revolution Africa 2.0 is designed for people who want more than surface-level conversations.
Across two days, attendees can expect keynotes and candid ecosystem discussions that go beyond success stories to unpack what’s actually working—and what isn’t—across African markets. These sessions will tackle real challenges around scaling, regulation, infrastructure, talent, and trust.
There will be practical sessions and deep dives for founders, product teams, marketers, and operators, focused on building for African realities, including distribution, customer retention, pricing, compliance, and sustainable growth.
A dedicated Startup & Innovation Showcase will put emerging solutions in front of enterprises, investors, and decision-makers who can adopt, fund, or partner with them—moving ideas closer to real-world deployment.
The conference will also create space for partnership and deal-making moments, intentionally designed to spark conversations that don’t end at business cards but lead to collaborations, pilots, and long-term relationships.
And because Africa isn’t one market, the agenda reflects that reality—encouraging cross-border thinking, sharing local insights, and confronting the complexity of scaling across different systems and regulations.
Partners Powering the Ecosystem
Tech Revolution Africa 2.0 is headline-sponsored by MTN Nigeria, Africa’s largest telecom operator, and supported by leading ecosystem partners including Huawei, CoralPay, LigaData, Infonomics, Vennote, Bluechip Technologies, Digicore, Studyin, and more than 20 other technology companies.
Why It Matters
Africa’s next tech chapter won’t be driven by the loudest ideas, but by the most executable ones.
Tech Revolution Africa 2.0 creates the room where builders and decision-makers align—and where Africa’s digital future starts moving forward, now.
The event will take place at Landmark Event Centre, Lagos, on January 30–31, 2026.
