Talks

I’ve given talks around the world, including Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, Turkey, Uganda, United Kingdom, United States, Zambia, and and Zimbabwe.

I’m always glad to find an opportunity to share insights and hear thoughts from other colleagues in the emerging tech ecosystem. Feel free to reach out if you have an interesting speaking opportunity!

In February 2022, I led the project to create and launch the Google / Accenture Africa Developer Ecosystem 2021 report, the most comprehensive report created on Africa’s developer landscape to date. As part of the report launch, I delivered the keynote at Africa Technology Summit 2022 in Nairobi, Kenya on “Africa’s Developer Ecosystem in 2021: Creating Opportunities & Building For The Future”, going into detail on the latest research findings from the Africa Developer Ecosystem 2021 report, and how they’re relevant for startups and investors.

In May 2022, I had the chance to share more insights on that report, along with my excellent colleague John Kimani, through our talk at Google I/O 2022:
