About Nairobi · October 2026

Nairobi's next six weeks are builder-heavy, with the big investor conferences still ahead. Antler East Africa's Idea Lab on pivoting runs Oct 19, and Africa Startup Festival Kenya lands Oct 29. Later, MCP Dev Summit Nairobi (Nov 19) draws the agentic AI crowd. The real draws are Latitude59 on Dec 3, with its pitch competition and 200 investors, and Africa Tech Summit on Feb 10, where East Africa's founders plan their year.
