Africa is indeed rising and the proof is the growing number of young achievers who are coming out of the continent with great ideas and innovations that help shape the future.
Forbes Africa published its fourth 30 Under 30 List of Africa’s most promising young change-makers all under the age of 30. They released a list of 30 people each in three sectors – business, technology and creative.
Forbes said they were selected after months of rigorous research of the over 600 nominations and then vetting, verifying and investigating them for weeks before a panel of judges debated the final 90.
“You may not know many of their names now and they may not be richest people in Africa, but they could be the billionaires of tomorrow gracing our future covers,” said Forbes Africa.
We take you through the 30 African technology entrepreneurs (technopreneurs) in no particular order who are shaping their societies.
