Each year, Africa Week welcomes a diverse group of speakers whose stories, insights, and experiences inspire dialogue and reflection. Our 2025 speakers come from across the continent and beyond—leaders, artists, activists, and changemakers who embody the spirit of progress and possibility.

Through keynote addresses, forums, and intimate conversations, they challenge us to think deeper, act bolder, and stay rooted in the values that shape Africa’s future. Their voices help guide the week’s tone—thoughtful, hopeful, and unapologetically African.
