Lagos is gearing up to host one of Africa’s most anticipated tech events of the year—Tech Revolution Africa 2025—on January 31st and February 1st at the Oriental Hotel, with MTN, the continent’s telecommunications leader, announced as headline sponsor. Spearheaded by David Ogebe, CEO of House of Heroz, and Glory Olamigoke, Founder of TekNexus Africa, the event promises to unite tech pioneers, startups, investors, and policymakers to drive innovation, collaboration, and sustainable growth across Africa’s rapidly evolving digital economy.
Building on this momentum, the conference will gather industry titans from across sectors. Representatives from financial technology giants like Kuda, PiggyVest, FairMoney, Providus Bank, Sterling Bank, Coronation Bank, and Quidax will join technology infrastructure leaders MTN and NigComSat, innovation hubs such as Co-Creation Hub Africa (CcHUB) and SemiColon, e-commerce platform ShopEx, and global payment solution provider Visa to share expertise. Attendees can expect dynamic keynote speeches, panel discussions on Africa’s 2025 digital forecast, and hands-on masterclasses tailored to startups and professionals seeking to scale solutions in fintech, agritech, healthtech, and creative industries. Central to the event is its Startup Innovation Showcase, a platform for emerging ventures to pitch ideas to investors and corporate leaders, bridging the gap between vision and opportunity.
“This isn’t just another tech event—it’s a movement,” emphasized Glory Olamigoke. “By convening Africa’s brightest minds in Lagos, a city pulsating with tech energy, we’re creating a space where homegrown solutions can thrive and redefine global narratives.” David Ogebe echoed this vision, highlighting MTN’s pivotal role in curating world-class sessions: “Collaboration is the bedrock of progress. With MTN’s support, we’re ensuring every participant—whether a founder, developer, or investor—leaves equipped to contribute to Africa’s tech renaissance.”
The timing couldn’t be more critical. Africa’s tech sector is projected to surpass $712 billion by 2050, fueled by startups and enterprises tackling challenges in logistics, education, and financial inclusion. Yet, fragmented ecosystems and funding gaps persist. Tech Revolution Africa 2025 aims to address these hurdles by fostering partnerships, sharing actionable insights, and spotlighting untapped talent. From workshops on securing venture capital to debates on regulatory frameworks, the event is designed to empower attendees with tools to navigate and lead in an increasingly competitive market.
For professionals, the conference offers a rare chance to network with hiring managers from top firms, while founders gain direct access to investor meetups and mentorship sessions. Meanwhile, ecosystem builders will explore strategies to amplify infrastructure and policy support. Tech Revolution Africa also offers tailored experiences through three ticket tiers: Classic (access to main-stage events and exhibitions), Vintage (priority seating and executive lounges), and Royal (VIP networking and branded merchandise).
