About Event

We're thrilled to partner with the SHACK15 team on a day of bringing African tech to the Bay!

​Venture investments in Africa doubled and exceeded US$4.9B in 2021, with the next wave of unicorns entering global markets in the next decade. Africa promises to be a leading driver of technology innovation and high, uncorrelated returns.

​​Join our team at SHACK15 for a full day of learning and networking with globally-aware investors and promising African entrepreneurs in high-growth technology sectors across Africa.

As a guest of Untapped, you are granted free entry to the daytime event "Tech In Africa: Why Silicon Valley Should Pay Attention" beginning at 3:00PM, and free entry, food and drinks for the Ghanaian Afrobeats artist M.Anifest performance, kicking off at 6:30PM.
