Africa Traveltech Summit & Expo Nairobi

The Africa Traveltech Summit & Expo (ATTSE) is an annual trade fair that has established itself as a key platform for innovation, technology, and digitalization within the African travel sector. Since its inception in 2023, it has been bringing together professionals from across the tourism industry—including tour operators, hotels, airlines, and destination management companies—with leading technology experts and providers of digital solutions.

Organized by SNG Events, a renowned Kigali-based conference organizer specializing in the professional execution of exhibitions, seminars, and trade shows across various industries, the event takes place at the Argyle Grand Hotel Nairobi Airport in Nairobi, Kenya. This modern venue meets international standards and reflects a high level of professionalism and hospitality.

The Africa Traveltech Summit & Expo stands out for its clear, practice-oriented focus. It showcases not only what is technologically possible but, more importantly, how digital tools can be applied to increase efficiency, personalize customer experiences, and promote sustainable development in African tourism. Digital transformation meets real-world application here—from cloud-based booking systems and AI-powered chatbots to platforms that measure carbon footprints.

A special emphasis is placed on promoting local traveltech solutions and start-ups whose innovations are tailored specifically to the needs of the African market. Key areas include mobile payment systems, booking apps for local tours, and technologies that support community-based tourism. The expo also serves as a vital platform for networking, partnerships, and investment: pitch sessions give African start-ups the opportunity to present their ideas to international investors, while targeted B2B meetings facilitate new business collaborations.

Key content areas include artificial intelligence and personalized services, the future of booking behavior, developments in metasearch technology, and the use of tech-driven solutions to enable responsible tourism. Other topics such as data utilization, market analysis, and future mobility concepts—including air taxis and digital ground transportation systems—are also explored.

The Africa Traveltech Summit & Expo thus represents a highly specialized, relevant, and forward-looking interface between technology and tourism, aiming not just to accompany but to actively shape the digital transformation of the African travel industry.

The third edition of the Africa Traveltech Summit & Expo takes place on 2 days from Mon., 29.09.2025 to Tue., 30.09.2025 in Nairobi.
