EdTrust was at the 8th Africa Tech Summit (ATS) Nairobi 2026 — one of the most important gatherings of Africa's technology ecosystem, held at the Sarit Expo Centre in Nairobi on 11–12 February 2026.
With 2,000+ delegates and 170+ speakers from across Africa and the world, ATS Nairobi is the event where tech leaders, investors, startups, regulators, and corporates come together to shape the future of the continent's digital economy.
Four Tracks, One Direction
The 2026 edition was built around four key themes that reflect Africa's most pressing and exciting frontiers:
- Africa Startup Summit — spotlighting the next generation of high-growth ventures
- Africa AI & Digital Summit — exploring the role of artificial intelligence in transforming industries
- Africa Money & DeFi Summit — the future of finance and decentralised technology
- Africa Climate Tech & Investment Summit — innovation in the service of sustainability
For EdTrust, the Startup and AI tracks were particularly resonant — both sit at the heart of what we do: using AI to help schools operate smarter and give every child a better-connected education.
Why ATS Nairobi Matters for EdTrust
Our presence at Africa Tech Summit is a natural extension of the Kenya journey we have been building — through the AFRISTART programme, the GAK Advisory partnership, and our growing engagement with Kenya's education ecosystem.
Nairobi is not just a market we are entering. It is a market we are investing in — with the belief that Kenya's 90,000+ schools deserve the same quality of digital infrastructure that is transforming schools in Tunisia and beyond.
ATS brought us face to face with investors, partners, and innovators who share that conviction. Every conversation is a step forward.
