Africa Ascends: Build What's Next

November 20–21, 2026 · Nairobi, Kenya

Africa DevOps Summit 2026 is the continent's premier gathering for engineers, platform builders, AI practitioners, and security professionals doing the most consequential technical work of our time.

For too long, Africa's engineering community has been handed frameworks designed elsewhere — conference agendas that treat the continent as an afterthought. ADS2026 exists to end that story.

The work happening in Nairobi, Lagos, Accra, Kigali, Cape Town, and Cairo is not a smaller version of problems solved elsewhere. It is harder, more complex, and more consequential. And the people solving it deserve a stage that reflects that.

Africa's tech ascent is already happening. ADS2026 is where we name it, celebrate it, and accelerate it together.

What We Cover

ADS2026 runs three full content tracks across both days:

• DevOps & Platform Engineering — CI/CD pipelines, platform engineering, IaC, cloud-native infrastructure, SRE
• AI, MLOps & Intelligent Systems — Model deployment, LLMOps, edge AI, data pipelines, AI in African market conditions
• Security & DevSecOps — Threat modelling, cloud security, compliance automation, DevSecOps transformation

Who Attends

500+ engineers, architects, AI practitioners, security professionals, engineering leads, CTOs, and early-career engineers from across Africa and the global tech community.

Africa DevOps Summit 2026 is organised by the Nairobi DevOps Community.
