Confirmed 5-Day Structure

Day 3·Oct 21, 2026Field Day

Ecosystem Visit & Immersion

Delegates leave the auditorium and visit Tanzania's leading ecosystem partners startups, hubs, accelerators, or corporate innovation centres — to form the relationships that policy documents and pitch decks alone cannot generate.
