About Us

Tech Across Africa covers the people, companies and ideas building technology across the continent. We report on startups, funding, fintech, AI, policy and infrastructure, and we tell the stories of the founders and talent behind them.

Why we exist

Most coverage of African tech follows the biggest rounds and the best known names. The companies still finding product market fit, the founders shipping their first product and the engineers quietly building world class systems rarely get the same spotlight. We built Tech Across Africa to change that.

What we cover

  • News: launches, partnerships and market moves across African tech
  • Startups and Product Launches: what early and growth stage companies are building
  • Funding and Deals: venture rounds, grants and acquisitions
  • Founder Stories: long form interviews with the people building
  • Tech Talent: careers, skills and the operators behind the products
  • Fintech, AI, Policy, Telecom and Infrastructure: the sectors and rules shaping the continent

Who we serve

  • Small and medium tech companies that want to tell their story
  • Founders building products that are not big yet, but will be
  • Tech talent looking for visibility, interviews and opportunities
  • Investors, partners and readers who want a clear view of what is being built in Africa
