The Africa House Future Forum, a dynamic event held adjacent to the World Economic Forum (WEF), unites global leaders, visionaries, and creatives to usher in a new era for Africa. Under the theme “Africa: The Future Lives Here, Leading Generations into a New Era,” we explore the continent's vast potential in technology, creativity, and sustainable development, shaping a future where Africa thrives.

Now in its fifth year, the Forum has welcomed over 1,000 global leaders, visionaries, elected officials, and influential figures, all committed to empowering Africa's innovative future and the next generation. “Tech Futures,” a special two-day program developed with Pax Technologica, will convene leading experts and innovators to address critical technology challenges and opportunities during the Forum.
