The Deep Learning Indaba 2025 is coming to Kigali under the theme “Urunana, Hand in Hand for AI in Africa” — and they’re calling on YOU to shape the future of African AI!
What is Urunana?
“Urunana” means “hand in hand”, a deeply African value of solidarity, shared growth, and collective impact. It captures DLI’s mission to bridge gaps between:
- Academia & Industry
- Established researchers & emerging talent
- Local knowledge systems & modern AI frameworks
- Developers and policymakers
It’s not just about technology; it's about building an inclusive ecosystem across borders and disciplines.
Two Big Opportunities:
African Datasets: Submit unique, local datasets to power AI that understands Africa.
Startup Showcase: Got an AI-driven startup solving real problems? Get visibility, mentoring & a stage at DLI2025!
Finals in Kigali, Rwanda: August 17–22, 2025
This is more than a tech event, it’s about African innovators leading our AI story, together.
