Entertainment Week Africa’s AI & Tech Track brings founders, developers and creators to Lagos from 17–22 November 2026 to explore the creative economy. Part of the wider Entertainment Week Africa (EWA) programme, this multi-day conference and hackathon focuses on the tools, platforms and builders powering Africa’s creative and entertainment industries. It offers a meeting point for technical talent, creative professionals, platform teams and innovation partners interested in how AI and emerging technology can support the creation, production and commercialisation of creative work. What to expect EWA describes each of its industry tracks as a focused programme combining panels, masterclasses, showcases, markets and labs. Rather than treating technology as a standalone subject, the AI & Tech Track places it within the practical realities of the creative economy, connecting builders and platforms with the people and businesses that may use their products. The track is designed around: - AI tools and technology platforms for creative work - Founders and developers building for entertainment and the wider creative economy - Creators exploring new tools, workflows and opportunities - Innovation partners looking to engage with Africa’s creative industries - Practical spaces where ideas and work can be developed, presented and brought to market The combination of conference programming and hands-on activity makes this relevant to a broad range of experience levels. Product founders, software developers and experienced operators can connect with potential collaborators and industry users, while creators and creative entrepreneurs can discover how technology is being applied across their fields. The event page does not list prerequisites, so attendees should consult the published schedule and lineup for individual session details. Part of a seven-track creative programme The AI & Tech programme sits alongside six other EWA 2026 tracks: Music; Film & TV; Fashion & Beauty; Art & Animation; Live Events & Production; and Creative Enterprise. This cross-industry setting is a distinctive part of the experience, bringing technologists into the same event ecosystem as artists, producers, studios, brands, investors, executives and other creative-economy operators.… Register for this event

Quantum Africa Summit is a Lagos conference on 28 November 2026 exploring quantum computing and AI in an African context. It brings two transformative fields into one focused event. Quantum computing meets AI Taking place in Lagos, Nigeria, Quantum Africa Summit is designed around the intersection of quantum computing and artificial intelligence. The conference provides a dedicated setting for exploring technologies that are reshaping how people think about computation, intelligent systems and the future of digital innovation. The event’s distinctive focus is its African setting. Rather than treating quantum technology and AI only as global trends, the summit places the conversation in Lagos,one of the continent’s major technology and business centres. It should be particularly relevant to people who want to follow the development of advanced computing while connecting that discussion to Africa’s growing technology ecosystem. Who is it for? The summit is likely to appeal to a broad technology audience, including: - Developers, engineers and technical leaders interested in quantum computing or AI - Researchers, students and educators following emerging computing fields - Founders and product builders assessing the direction of advanced technology - Innovation, business and policy professionals seeking a clearer view of quantum and AI - Members of Nigeria’s wider technology community looking to meet others with similar interests The listing does not specify an experience requirement, so prospective attendees should consult the registration page for any technical prerequisites. It also does not yet publish named speakers, a session timetable or details of individual talks. Those planning to attend should check the event page for programme updates as the date approaches. Event details - Date: 28 November 2026 - Location: Lagos, Nigeria - Format: In-person conference - Core themes: Quantum computing and artificial intelligence For attendees, the central value is the opportunity to spend a focused day around two fast-developing areas of technology, within an event explicitly framed around Africa. Whether you already work in AI, are beginning to investigate quantum computing, or want to understand where these fields may converge, the summit offers a clear thematic entry point.… Register for this event
