What is Amedi

The frontier starts here.

Amedi is an Ibibio word for welcome: an invitation to come closer and see what is here.

And there is a lot to see. Founders are building. Engineers are experimenting. Businesses are scaling. New infrastructure is arriving. A generation of talent is choosing to build from home.

The question now is what comes next. Can what is built in Akwa Ibom compete in larger markets? Can local ideas become global companies? Can the state's talent, infrastructure and ambition become an engine for the next generation of industry?

That is the opportunity.

Akwa Ibom Tech Week 2026 brings together the people, capital, technology and institutions needed to explore what is possible, and to start building what comes next.

The frontier starts here.
Welcome to Akwa Ibom. Amedi.

Six days. Two cities. One frontier.

Across six days and two cities, AKTW 2026 turns that invitation into a programme of ideas, encounters, experiences and action.

Golf and Tech Mixer

The 2026 frame

Intelligence. Infrastructure. Industry.

Three lenses shape the week, not three separate tracks.

Intelligence

What happens when Africa doesn't just use AI, but builds with it, owns it, and shapes what comes next?

Infrastructure

What does it take to build the digital, physical and institutional systems that make growth actually possible?

Industry

How do we turn ideas, talent and capital into companies, jobs and economic value that competes beyond our borders?

None of the three stands alone: infrastructure has to be in place before intelligence can scale, and industry is ultimately what pays for more of both.

This is how Scaling the Frontier plays out in practice: Intelligence is what we bring from home. Infrastructure is what lets it travel. Industry is what it becomes once it competes beyond our borders. Every session in the week sits under one of these three lenses.

A participant at a previous edition of Akwa Ibom Tech Week

Why Akwa Ibom

The assets were always here. The ecosystem is what changed.

Energy

504,000barrels a day, about a third of Nigeria's crude output and the largest of any state

Connectivity

Nigeria's onlysubsea cable landing outside Lagos, at Qua Iboe on the 2Africa system

Capacity

180 Tbpsdesign capacity on that cable, with metro fibre now reaching Uyo

Mobility

Africa's onlystate that owns and runs a commercial airline, now flying internationally

Talent

14+technology and innovation hubs, most of them within Uyo

Public investment

NGN 1.39trnstate budget for 2026, under the ARISE Agenda

Sources: Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission, MainOne and Equinix, and the Akwa Ibom State 2026 budget.

Akwa Ibom already has what a technology destination needs: energy, connectivity, capacity and talent. What's left is connecting them.

That's the case for Akwa Ibom becoming Africa's next tech destination, not a title anyone can claim outright, but a position within reach if the assets above keep getting connected.

Questions

Before you register.

What is Akwa Ibom Tech Week?

An annual, in-person week of programming in Uyo and Ikot Ekpene, built around the themes of intelligence, infrastructure and industry. It runs from 2 to 7 November 2026, after six weeks of virtual buildup programming.

Is it in person, virtual, or both?

Both. The season opens on 23 September with six weeks of virtual sessions, clinics, panels and masterclasses, before the in-person week runs 2 to 7 November across Uyo and Ikot Ekpene.

Do I need to register in advance?

Yes. Registration is mandatory for all three passes. Delegate and VIP passes are limited and sell out ahead of the week, so registering early is worth it.

What's the difference between the three passes?

The Community Pass covers conference access. The Delegate Pass adds the conference kit, restricted areas, meals and ground logistics. The VIP Pass adds two nights' accommodation and two further delegate passes for colleagues.

How do I get around during the week?

Ground logistics for Delegate and VIP passholders covers airport transfers, Conference Day shuttles between Uyo and Ikot Ekpene, and vehicles across the week, wherever you choose to stay.

Can my organisation sponsor or exhibit?

Yes, either through one of the five partner tiers, or with a standalone exhibition booth at the Made in Akwa Ibom Marketplace or the Conference Day exhibition floor. Get in touch and we'll build the activation around what you're trying to achieve.

Can I still enter the Startup Pitch Competition?

Applications closed on Sunday 25 October. Ten finalists pitch at the final on Tuesday 3 November in Uyo, with ₦10 million in prizes, and you are welcome to come and watch. See the pitch competition page.

How do I take part in the Career Fair?

The Career Fair runs on Wednesday 4 November in Uyo, for employers who are hiring and for job seekers. Fill the short interest form on the Career Fair page and we will send you the details.

I want to speak, moderate, or cover the week. How?

Reach out through the Speak, Cover, Contribute section above with what you'd like to do, and we'll match you to a slot in Conference Day, a buildup session, or press access.
