Mavericks, innovation, gaming & expats: Africa’s tech scene at a glance

My favorite thing about Africa right now is how everyone is gingered up about amazing things that are happening in the tech scene. It’s not just about the innovations or the fact that the continent has more than 45 tech hubs, it’s the culture that is emerging. We are building a real tech-obsessed community here and that is great.

Uganda’s Hive Colab is gaining respectable traction and Teddy Ruge is determined to grow the country’s tech scene. All around, Africa hubs and incubators are popping up to help foster a renewed interest in tech and entrepreneurship. Expats are returning to the continent to see how they can help and ecosystems are searching for their next mavericks.
