Building Resilient Products for Africa's AI Era
In a world where AI is rewriting the rules of product development, African builders face a distinct reality fragmented infrastructure, diverse languages, trust gaps, and underserved users that most AI tools were never designed for. And yet, out of these constraints comes some of the most creative, human-centred product thinking on the planet.
To celebrate World Product Day, AIDA brings together three exceptional voices at the intersection of AI, product, and Africa for an honest, practical, and energising conversation about what it really means to build resilient products for and from the continent.
What we'll explore:
- What does AI-first product thinking look like when your users don't look like Silicon Valley's?
- How do African product builders turn constraint into competitive advantage?
- What does the next generation of African product talent need to thrive in an AI era?

This year's global World Product Day theme is Resilience because the last few years haven't been easy, and the pressure to build more with less has never been greater. AIDA is bringing that conversation home to Africa, where resilience isn't just a theme but a way of building.
