Tech Business Happens Here
The Africa Technology Expo sits at the intersection of African potential and global necessity. As an enterprise-first expo, we bring together the operators building tomorrow’s infrastructure and the global stakeholders investing in it. In 2026, we push further into the hard-tech frontier, where hardware, connectivity, and enterprise software converge to solve real global challenges.
ATE is where serious players align roadmaps, form transnational partnerships, and tap into Africa’s massive growth trajectory.
The Curated lead-in to the Africa Technology Expo Week.
The Doing Business in Africa (DBIA) Tour is a 3-day curated experience, hosted by Itana, leading straight into Africa Technology Expo Week.
Aimed at founders, operators, investors, and enterprise leaders, it offers practical on-the-ground insights and context — sparking early conversations, relationships, and sharper perspectives before the main ATE event.
