The Africa Tech Summit (ATS) London, known for driving business and investment in the African tech landscape, is now accepting applications for its Investment Showcase at the eighth annual event. Scheduled for June 7th, 2024, at the prestigious London Stock Exchange, this event will once again bring together over 300 tech leaders, policymakers, investors, and entrepreneurs from around the globe.
This year, the focus intensifies on the Investment Showcase, designed specifically for African tech ventures that are poised for partnerships or seeking significant investment opportunities. The showcase provides a unique platform for startups to present their innovative solutions and business models directly to an audience of potential investors and strategic partners.
One of the compelling success stories from last year’s summit is that of Abraham Itule, Founder and CEO of Safiri. This Tanzanian transport and logistics startup captured the attention of investors with its revolutionary approach to mobility in Africa, leading to a successful funding round post-summit. Itule’s experience highlights the summit’s effectiveness in bridging the gap between African tech innovators and global investment interests.
Participants at the summit can expect a dynamic agenda filled with insightful keynotes, engaging panels, and targeted breakout sessions. These are complemented by networking opportunities and masterclasses designed to provide deeper knowledge and industry connections. The summit is not just a conference but a pivotal event that has proven to catalyze significant business and investment deals for African tech companies.
For tech ventures looking to participate in the Investment Showcase, eligibility requires being African-based, having at least one African co-founder, or being headquartered in Africa. Additionally, ventures should have a product or service that demonstrates innovation and scalability. Applications for this golden opportunity are open until May 2nd.
