As most of you know, Nuelink recently participated in GITEX Africa, one of the largest tech and startup shows in Africa, from May 29th to 31st, 2024. We packed our bags, along with Nuelink’s stickers, and headed to Marrakech to represent Nuelink and Morocco.
What we found there exceeded our expectations! The show, and Marrakech as a whole, was filled with innovative and creative people. This event showcased Africa's digital ambitions and achievements, where Africa’s biggest tech companies, startups, and investors exchanged ideas and collaborated on groundbreaking projects.
The atmosphere was electric with innovation, providing a platform for meaningful connections and inspiring discussions. It was a testament to the continent's potential and a glimpse into a bright future.
So, here is our recap of the most exciting three days we had, seeing some of our amazing users and meeting new ones.
