Thirteen startups will pitch their products and services at the ninth Africa Tech Summit London on June 6, which aims to facilitate access to global capital for African tech ventures.
Africa Tech Summit London takes place at the London Stock Exchange on June 6, supported by partners including Amazon Web Services, London Stock Exchange, Fincra, Flutterwave, Tola Mobile, Bank of America, the UK Department for Business and Trade, Payaza Africa, Wimbart, and TLP Advisor.
The summit is set to welcome over 350 investors, founders, and industry leaders to discuss how African ventures can scale globally, navigate new economic realities, and unlock funding. It also features an investment showcase, which this year sees 13 ventures pitch to potential investors and partners.
Six of those companies are Nigerian – e-health platform Blueroomcare, construction-tech service Build Africa, med-tech venture MyItura, HR software NotchHR, market intelligence platform Pika Insights, and payment fraud detector WALLX Africa.
South Africa is represented by five startups – logistics platform CtrlFleet, legal-tech service Lawyered Up, payments startup NjiaPay, recruitment service Rafiki, and waste management platform Smartfill. Pan-African payments startups Blockradar and straitPay complete the cohort.
“This is a critical time for African ventures,” said Andrew Fassnidge, founder of Africa Tech Summit. “The funding taps may have slowed, but the appetite for scalable, impactful African solutions hasn’t gone anywhere. We aim to connect ventures with global investors and capital markets at the London Stock Exchange next month. In a complex, shifting economic landscape, we need bold conversations, real opportunities, and capital that moves.”
