The organisers of the Connected Africa Summit have opened the call for entries for the 2025 Connected ICT Innovation Awards. The awards are open to tech developers and companies across Africa.
There are four categories: AgriTech, GreenTech, Creative Economy, and AI & Cybersecurity for Business and Government. Applicants must have a registered company, an active product or service in use for at least six months, and serve African end-users directly or through partners.
Winners will be announced during the 13th Connected Africa Summit, taking place from May 26 to 29, 2025, at Diamonds Leisure Beach & Golf Resort in Diani. They will receive trophies and certificates.
Entries will be assessed by a panel of judges from across Africa. The awards are part of the larger Connected Africa Summit programme, which includes participants from the government, private sector, academia, and other stakeholders in the digital economy.
Since 2011, the awards have named more than 110 ICT solutions across various sectors.
One past participant, Elly Savatia of Signvrse, was named First Runner-Up in the Healthcare category in 2024.
