KYSHI BRIDGE 3.0 — CHINA EDITION
Bridging the World's Two Fastest-Growing Economies: Building China–Africa Digital Corridors
Join founders, investors, technology leaders, policymakers, operators, and innovators from across China and Africa for a morning of insightful conversations, meaningful connections, and high-value networking in Shenzhen.
Kyshi Bridge is Kyshi’s flagship thought-leadership series dedicated to unpacking the systems shaping Africa’s digital, financial, industrial, and creative future. It convenes founders, investors, policymakers, enterprise leaders, and innovators to examine the most urgent challenges and uncover opportunities for scalable growth.
Hosted in Shenzhen, home to Tencent, Huawei, and the manufacturing backbone of global tech, this special China Edition will feature thought-provoking panel discussions, a headline fireside chat with a leading technology executive, partner spotlights, and curated networking with decision-makers building across both markets.
What to Expect
☕ Executive Breakfast & Curated Networking
Start the morning over breakfast with founders, investors, operators, policymakers, and business leaders from across China and Africa. Every attendee is intentionally selected to encourage meaningful conversations and long-term relationships.
🗣 Around the Circle
Every participant gets the opportunity to introduce themselves, share what they're building, and offer one insight or perspective on the China–Africa corridor. It's designed so that everyone contributes from the very beginning.
🌍 Executive Dialogue I: What Does It Really Take to Build Between Continents?
A facilitated conversation exploring the realities of building, investing, and expanding across the China–Africa corridor. Rather than traditional panels, participants share practical experiences, challenge assumptions, and learn from one another.
🚀 Executive Dialogue II: What Will the Next Decade of Innovation Look Like?
A forward-looking discussion on the technologies, industries, and opportunities that will shape the future of collaboration between China and Africa, with every voice contributing to the conversation.
💡 Company Spotlights
Each organisation has a dedicated opportunity to introduce what they're building, the problems they're solving, and the partnerships they're looking for, making networking more intentional and commercially relevant.
🤝 Intentional Networking
By the close of the programme, you'll already know who is investing, who is expanding, who is solving which problems, and who you'd like to continue the conversation with over lunch and beyond.
