MIND THE PRODUCT: OFFICIAL MEDIA PARTNER OF Inspire Africa Conference

Mind the Product and Inspire Africa Conference Partner to Boost African Tech Innovation

Inspire Africa Conference is proud to announce its official media partnership with Mind the Product, the world’s most engaged product management community, for its 3rd Edition.

This landmark collaboration signals a major step in spotlighting African product innovation on a global stage. Together, Inspire Africa and Mind the Product will amplify African product voices, bridge regional expertise with global trends, and catalyze a new era of cross-continental collaboration in product development and leadership.

Taking place in Kigali, Rwanda on 14th-17th October 2025, the 3rd Edition of the largest gathering of product professionals in Africa will feature thought-provoking keynotes from product powerhouses such as Oji & Ezinne Udezue,  Laura Teclemariam and Irembo’s Patrick Ndjientcheu; hands-on product masterclasses led by world-renowned Silicon Valley Product Group (SVPG) coaches, including the product ‘Godfather’ Marty Cagan, and raw stories of building, iterating, and scaling from across the continent.

With Mind the Product as the official media partner, these insights will now reach a broader global audience of product thinkers, doers, and leaders.

“The purpose of the Inspire Africa Conference is to energize, empower, and connect the product community in Africa, for Africa. We bring together global product leaders and professionals to inspire and upskill the next generation of African tech leaders, connect people to opportunities, and empower entrepreneurs to turn their ideas into real products by offering practical training and expert guidance. I’m particularly thrilled about this partnership with Mind the Product because their global community alongside our pan-African lens creates the perfect platform to explore what it truly means to build products in and for Africa.” says Christian Idiodi, Co Founder, Inspire Africa Conference.

Mind the Product will support the event by providing pre- and post-conference content coverage, including expert articles and podcast interviews with conference speakers and attendees. Attendees and global audiences can expect dynamic stories and learnings that reflect Africa’s evolving product maturity and its bold future.

"This is an exciting partnership that aligns with Mind the Product’s mission to support the growth of product people everywhere,” said Mike Belsito, senior director of Mind the Product. “We’re thrilled to shine a spotlight on the innovation and product leadership happening throughout Africa, to elevate local expertise, and build meaningful connections that advance our craft globally.”
