Every Monday we pull the top stories from leading tech publications across West and East Africa — TechCabal, Techpoint Africa, TechWeez, TechMoran and more — rank them by relevance, and publish the most important articles directly to the site.
We cover two of Africa's most dynamic tech regions. West Africa: startup funding, fintech, and innovation across Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal and beyond. East Africa: Kenya's thriving startup scene, Rwanda's tech hubs, Ethiopian fintech, and the broader EAC ecosystem.
Finding credible organisations to support back home shouldn't be hard. Our directory lists vetted nonprofits across tech, education, health, economic empowerment, and the environment — with direct links so you can donate or get involved from wherever you are in the world.
Our RSS pipeline fetches articles from 15 trusted sources across both regions, filters for relevance, and scores them by quality. The result is a clean, noise-free digest — no clickbait, no duplicates, just the stories that actually matter to Africa's tech ecosystem.
Africa Dev is built specifically for Africans in the diaspora — professionals, students, and entrepreneurs living abroad who want to stay connected to the tech ecosystem back home. Whether you left Lagos last year, grew up in Nairobi, or were born in London, Africa Dev gives you one place to follow the funding rounds, product launches, and policy shifts shaping Africa's digital future.
We aggregate from the most trusted English-language tech publications across two regions.
