As Africa cements its place on the global tech stage, GITEX Africa 2025 returns from April 14–16, 2025, as the continent’s premier gathering of innovators, industry leaders, policymakers, and investors. More than just an event, GITEX Africa has become a catalyst for digital transformation, shaping conversations, forging partnerships, and driving investment into Africa’s growing technology landscape. 

Last year’s edition, set a remarkable precedent, attracting 45,000 visitors from 130 countries, 1,400 exhibiting companies and startups, 650 government entities, 350 investors, and 660 expert speakers and panelists. This year, expectations are even higher as Marrakech once again plays host to a convergence of the brightest minds and boldest innovations. From AI and fintech to smart cities, cybersecurity, and next-generation connectivity, GITEX Africa 2025 will be the backdrop for critical discussions on the future of Africa’s digital economy.
