The Largest Tech Festival in Africa, XPLORE DISRUPTORS: “We’re Building the Future, One Disruptor at a Time,” Says Light Ihesiulo
Africa’s digital transformation is no longer a dream, it’s happening now. And at the center of this continental shift stands XPLORE DISRUPTORS, the largest and most impact-driven tech festival in Africa.
XPLORE DISRUPTORS is more than a tech event, it’s a movement shaping the narrative of innovation, opportunity, and impact across Africa.
A New Era of African Innovation
The world is watching as Africa becomes a rising powerhouse of innovation. From fintech and artificial intelligence to sustainable technologies and robotics, the continent’s young innovators are redefining what’s possible.
XPLORE DISRUPTORS captures that spirit, creating a platform where over 30,000+ attendees, 5,000+ startups, 500+ investors and mentors, and global policymakers converge to collaborate, build, and scale the future.
Every panel, every exhibition, and every startup pitch at XPLORE DISRUPTORS is designed to do one thing, ignite transformation.
“We’re Building the Future, One Disruptor at a Time”
Speaking about the vision behind XPLORE, Engr. Light Ihesiulo, the Convener of XPLORE DISRUPTORS, CEO of Lognetics, and Founder of Netics AI, shared his passionate belief in the power of Africa’s innovators to change the world.
“Africa is gradually leading. Through XPLORE, we’re creating a continental and global gateway for innovators, investors, and dreamers to build the future together. This isn’t just a conference; it’s a revolution of minds, technology, and opportunities,” he said.
He added,
“We’re merging innovation with impact, ensuring every participant, startup, and investor leaves with a story of transformation. XPLORE represents the audacity of African innovation — bold, visionary, and ready to shape the next decade of global technology.”
Beyond a Conference, A Gateway to Real Opportunities
The two-day festival promises more than just conversations. It’s an immersive experience where innovation meets action.
Highlights include:
● Startup Showcases featuring groundbreaking African innovations across AI, blockchain, health tech, fintech, green tech, and edtech.
● Investor and Mentorship Networks connecting startups with capital, expertise, and growth support.
● Live Pitching Sessions where founders compete for funding and partnerships before a panel of global investors.
● 2,000+ Free Tech Skill Scholarships empowering Africa’s youth in coding, data science, AI, and digital transformation.
● Job Placement and Career Opportunities linking skilled talents with global employers.
XPLORE DISRUPTORS is where dreams are funded, partnerships are born, and Africa’s digital future is written.
The Executive Roundtable and Deal Room
Day 2 of the festival, holding at the World Trade Center Abuja, will feature the Executive Roundtable and Deal Room, an exclusive boardroom session where CEOs, investors, government leaders, and startup founders will negotiate strategic collaborations and billion-dollar partnerships.
This private engagement aims to drive actionable investments and policy conversations that strengthen Africa’s role in the global tech economy.
Powered by Partnerships that Drive Impact
XPLORE DISRUPTORS is powered by Lognetics, a leading innovation company driving Africa’s digital transformation, and endorsed by key ministries of the Federal Government of Nigeria.
