About The Forum
The African continent stands at a pivotal moment in its history, with the recent establishment of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) heralding a new era of economic cooperation and growth. The startups are at the heart of this transformation, the engines of innovation, job creation, and economic prosperity. With great enthusiasm and foresight, the Pan-African Youth Union (PYU), in collaboration with the SOUSS MASSA Region, the Independent Continental Youth Advisory Council on AfCFTA (ICOYACA) and the Commonwealth Alliance of Young Entrepreneurs - Africa(CAYE Africa), presents the inaugural Africa Startup Forum 2025. Set to take place from April 27th to 30th in the vibrant city of Agadir, Morocco, this landmark event aims to galvanise the entrepreneurial spirit across the continent and unlock the full potential of Africa's startup ecosystem.
