Women in STEM Summit 2026
About This Event
The Summit will convene innovators, investors, policymakers, industry leaders, academia, development partners, startups, students, and corporate organisations from across Africa and beyond to explore how the continent can identify, nurture, finance, and scale its scientific, technological, and creative talent while strengthening Africa’s position in the global innovation economy.
Through high-level policy dialogues, keynote addresses, innovation showcases, exhibitions, investor engagement, talent discovery platforms, and strategic networking opportunities, the Summit will serve as more than a conference. It will be a catalyst for collaboration, investment, and inclusive innovation, generating actionable partnerships and opportunities that translate policy ambition into tangible outcomes for women and girls in STEM across Africa while strengthening the continent’s innovation ecosystem.
