We’re thrilled to announce that Moonshot by TechCabal, our flagship conference that brings Africa’s tech ecosystem together under one roof, is back for its third edition! Get ready to network, collaborate, share insights, and celebrate the incredible innovation happening across the continent.
We’re also excited to share that Sabi is returning as our headline sponsor for the third consecutive year, alongside platinum sponsors Raenest, Cardtonic, Roqqu, Opay, Busha, and Flutterwave.
This year’s edition, themed “Building Momentum,” is a reflection of the pivotal moment Africa’s tech ecosystem is experiencing. We’ve seen significant progress, and now the focus is on scaling that growth in a sustainable and structured way. We seek to answer the questions: What is next for African tech? And what does scale look like for African startups?
At TechCabal, we believe in convening the brightest minds—innovators, investors, business leaders, creators, and even regulators—shaping Africa’s future. Moonshot is our platform to make that happen, a global launchpad where transformative ideas take flight. In 2024, we explored what it means to build for the world. In 2025, we aim to explore how the African tech ecosystem can collectively build on its past achievements to gain momentum and drive future growth.
Last year, we hosted over 4,000 of you in Lagos, Nigeria. We spent two packed days diving into insightful discussions and exploring the wins and potential of African innovation. Moonshot 2024 featured over 90 speakers and 9 diverse tracks, including exciting new additions like Climate Tech, Government Regulation & Policy, and FUEL: The Investor Conference. We were honored to welcome an incredible lineup of speakers, including Bosun Tijani, Nigeria’s Minister of Communications, Innovation, and Digital Economy, Dr. Juliet Ehimuan, Iyin Aboyeji, Layi Wasabi, among many other leaders from tech, business, and the creator spaces.

This year, Moonshot by TechCabal is evolving beyond the traditional conference format. We’re creating a curated, immersive experience of Africa’s innovation journey. This storytelling-driven approach will influence everything from the event design and session formats to the networking opportunities. We will be introducing TC’s column-inspired live sessions, curated roundtables & private room discussions, community-driven sessions and structured deal rooms, and investors’ matchmaking sessions.
We’re retaining the nine content tracks from last year, but with updated formats and focus. The number of sessions within each track will be tailored to the depth and relevance of the discussions. The tracks are grouped into two tiers: Tier One, which includes Future of Commerce, Creative Economy, Emerging Tech (AI & ML), Startup Festival, and FUEL: The Investors Conference, and Tier Two, which includes Clean Tech & Climate, Big Tech & Enterprise, Entering Tech, and Government & Policy.
Mark your calendars for October 15th and 16th, 2025, because we’ll be back at the Eko Convention Centre in Lagos, Nigeria, for two days of sharper and more engaging conversations with industry leaders and innovators.
