[EVENT [OCTOBER 15 2024] | The TLcom Africa Tech Female Founder Summit 2024 to Feature Cameroon Crypto Startup, Ejara
TLcom Capital, one of Africa’s largest venture capital firms, has officially announced its 6th edition of the Africa Tech Female Founder Summit, which will be held on October 15 2024 in Nairobi, Kenya.
Themed ‘Transformative Leadership: Redefining Success in Tech,’ the 2024 Africa Tech Female Founder Summit is designed to unite, inspire, and empower female founders across Africa, offering a platform to learn from each other and establish supportive networks. The theme will also emphasise the importance of transformative leadership and strategic partnerships in scaling businesses within the tech industry.
This year’s event boasts an exciting lineup of speakers including female founders:
who will hold a panel on ‘Scaling and Sustaining Growth.’
The Summit will also hold a series of workshops and mentoring sessions on topics including:
Additionally, pre-selected startups will have the unique opportunity to pitch their companies and gather feedback from Africa’s leading investors such as Yemi Keri [Rising Tide Africa] and Joyce-Anne Wainai [Chui Ventures].
Speaking on the upcoming event, Omobola Johnson, Senior Partner at TLcom Capital, said:
“After navigating one of the toughest years for the tech ecosystem, founders now face a completely new landscape. Capital is still scarce and investors are increasingly pushing entrepreneurs to build, move to profitability faster and scale. But amidst all these demands, we’re missing a crucial discussion—what does it take to succeed in this context, especially as a woman?
This Summit will highlight the high-performance qualities that will empower female founders to rise to the forefront as industry leaders in this demanding environment.”
Over 500 African female tech entrepreneurs have attended previous editions of the Summit with 2023’s event in Lagos spotlighting:
Previous speakers have also featured:
Julia Gillard, former Prime Minister of Australia and Chair of Andela, as well as
Meg Whitman, former CEO of eBay, Hewlett-Packard and current US Ambassador to Kenya, and
Funke Opeke, Founder and CEO of MainOne, a technology infrastructure company in Nigeria that successfully exited to one of the largest tech infrastructure companies on the continent.

Andreata Muforo, Partner at TLcom Capital, adds,
“As women leaders, we often find ourselves navigating uncharted territories where traditional models of success don’t always resonate with our values. This year’s Summit is about exploring what it truly means to lead from within. We’re focusing on the skills that shape our influence – how we hire, how we cultivate culture, and how we make decisions that are authentically our own.
The event will go far beyond business performance metrics; it’s about reconstructing leadership on our terms and inspiring the next generation to see themselves in these roles.”

The firm has consistently demonstrated a strong commitment to female founders, supporting them through its annual summit and backing some of Africa’s most prominent female-led startups such as:
