Timart Selected for Africa Tech Summit Nairobi 2026: A Powerful Milestone for Nigerian SMEs

We’re excited to share some big news with our users, partners, and the global tech community

Timart has been officially selected as one of the 12 investor-ready ventures to showcase at the Africa Tech Summit Nairobi 2026, one of the continent’s most influential technology and investment gatherings.

This announcement, first reported by TechCabal, places Timart among Africa’s most promising startups solving real, high-impact problems across payments, healthtech, climate tech, Web3, agritech, and SME infrastructure.

What Is Africa Tech Summit Nairobi?

Africa Tech Summit Nairobi (ATS Nairobi) is a leading pan-African technology conference that brings together:

  • Startup founders
  • Global investors
  • Enterprise leaders
  • Policymakers and ecosystem builders

The 2026 edition will take place on February 11–12, 2026, at the Sarit Expo Centre, Nairobi, and is powered by Fincra.

A core feature of the summit is its Investment Showcase, where a carefully selected group of high-potential startups pitch, engage in expert Q&A sessions, and connect directly with investors and strategic partners.

Being selected is highly competitive and signals that a startup is investor-ready, scalable, and solving a meaningful problem.

Why Timart Was Selected

Timart was chosen for addressing one of the most persistent challenges facing Nigerian SMEs today:

  • Manual inventory tracking
  • Revenue leakage
  • Staff fraud
  • Scattered debt records
  • Offline tools that fail at scale
  • Poor cash-flow visibility

At Timart, we’re building simple, reliable, and modern inventory and business management tools designed specifically for SMEs operating in complex, real-world environments.

Our inclusion in the Africa Tech Summit Nairobi 2026 Investment Showcase validates what our users already know:

When SMEs have clarity, control, and real-time insight into their inventory and cash flow, they grow faster and lose less money.

  • Agritech and farmer market access

This diverse group reflects the breadth and depth of innovation coming out of Africa, and we’re proud to represent Nigeria’s SME technology ecosystem on this global stage.
