The inaugural edition of Gitex Africa 2023 has been sold out and an expansion phase is now underway for a purpose-built venue in Marrakech, Morocco, for Africa’s largest and most influential tech and start-up event.
Gitex Africa will make its debut from May 31 to June 2, 2023, welcoming more than 900 exhibitors, start-ups, and visiting delegations from 95 countries for three days of intensive outcome-focused public-private sector collaborations in the world’s next biggest digital economy.
