Transform Africa Summit 2025 Heads to Guinea, Spotlighting AI and Digital Innovation
This edition marks the first time TAS will be hosted in West Africa, reaffirming Guinea’s readiness to play a central role in Africa’s digital agenda.
Smart Africa and the Government of the Republic of Guinea have announced that the 7th edition of the highly anticipated Transform Africa Summit (TAS25) will take place from November 12 to 14, 2025, at the Radisson Blu Hotel, Conakry, under the theme “AI for Africa: Innovate Locally, Impact Globally.”
As Africa’s premier annual technology and innovation forum, the Summit continues to catalyze digital transformation across the continent by fostering collaboration between governments, businesses, and international organizations.
This edition marks the first time TAS will be hosted in West Africa, reaffirming Guinea’s readiness to play a central role in Africa’s digital agenda. The last summit, held in Zimbabwe in 2023, attracted five Heads of State, 44 ministers, and thousands of delegates from across Africa and beyond.
Organized by the Smart Africa Alliance in partnership with the Government of Guinea, TAS25 has cemented its role as a pivotal platform for shaping Africa’s digital future, accelerating socio-economic development, and promoting the adoption of cutting-edge technologies.
With a strong emphasis on emerging technologies and Artificial Intelligence (AI), this year’s Summit will feature high-level panels, workshops, training sessions, and an innovation-driven exhibition. Participants will gain insights into how AI can transform governance, education, health, finance, and entrepreneurship while ensuring inclusivity and ethical practices.
“AI represents Africa’s opportunity to innovate locally and impact globally. The Transform Africa Summit is where Africa will showcase its digital leadership to the world.”
