Hello beautiful people, welcome to Season 6 of the AfricArena Podcast, and what an epic journey its been.
To kick off this season, I’m going to take us back to Dakar, to the beautiful conference space at hotel Terrou bi where we hosted our latest West African Summit.
Throughout the conference I chatted various stakeholders in our ecosystem to gather their insight into on what’s happening on the ground in this exciting frontier tech ecosystem, of Dakar.
Massive thanks to our partner's DER, La Délégation Générale à l'Entreprenariat Rapide, International Trade Centre, Amazon Web Services, and our greater partner network for making this summit happen. If it wasn’t for all of you, we wouldn’t be sharing this all with you today.
In this episode we’re going to unpack what it is that makes the West African ecosystem so exciting and specifically what is happening on the ground in Dakar. I chatted to Tidjane Deme, Mareme Dieng, Zachariah George, Mohamed Karar and Hangwi Muambadzi. We’re going to deep dive into what made them come to Dakar, why they’re excited about it.
If you’re curious about this region, perhaps this episode will give you some further insight into why it’s worth taking seriously.
So let’s get stuck in shall we.
