1.2 Organisational Structure
AfriLabs is the largest pan-African network of over 500 technology and innovation hubs across 53 African Countries. AfriLabs was founded in 2011 to build a community around rapidly emerging tech hubs – innovation spaces that serve as meeting points and communities for developers, entrepreneurs, and investors. AfriLabs is governed by a Board that is representative of member hubs. The Board provides overall strategic leadership in the governance of the Organisation. Though seated in different countries across the continent, they meet regularly to define goals, review objectives, and take decisions regarding organization’s continuity and leadership amongst other things. The AfriLabs secretariat is led by an Executive Director, who is supported by the Senior Management Team responsible for overseeing and coordinating the organization’s daily operations both internally and across Africa. The Organisation has admitted over 500 technology and innovation hubs across Africa into its network. AfriLabs works with an increasing number of member hubs to support entrepreneurs and build a thriving tech ecosystem across the continent.
AfriLabs Secretariat is located at No. 18, Khartoum Street,
