ABOUT THE SUMMIT
The Growth Africa Summit (GAS) is an annual business and innovation summit that brings together founders, professionals, investors, creative entrepreneurs, and ecosystem builders from across Africa — and beyond.
Now in its third edition, holding on 14th November 2026, GAS 3.0 goes deeper. Under the theme Designing Africa's Growth Engine: Strategy, Talent and Technology, this year's summit is built around one belief: that sustainable growth doesn't happen by accident. It is designed through the right systems, the right people, and the right tools.
Built to educate, equip, and connect, GAS 3.0 empowers individuals and businesses to scale with intention, form strategic partnerships, adopt the technology that moves the needle, and take their place in Africa's next growth chapter.

VOICES FROM THE ROOM
I came expecting another business event, but I left with practical ideas I could apply immediately. The conversations and connections were worth every minute.
The sessions were insightful, the speakers were relatable, and the networking was intentional. GAS is the kind of event every growth professional should attend.
What I loved most was the balance between learning and connecting. From the panels to the networking sessions, every part of the experience added value.
