In a landmark move for Africa’s tech ecosystem, Kora, a leading payments infrastructure company, has been unveiled as the headline sponsor for Tech Sales Con 2025—Nigeria’s first and largest conference dedicated exclusively to Tech Sales and revenue professionals.
Organized by the Tech Sales & Partnerships Community (TSPC), this groundbreaking event will take place on Saturday, April 19, 2025, at GoMyCode, Yaba, Lagos, under the theme:
“Scaling Africa’s Tech Ecosystem Through Revenue Growth.”
Redefining the Value of Commercial Talent in Tech
This partnership signifies more than just support for a single event—it represents a paradigm shift in how the African tech industry is recognizing the critical role of commercial teams in driving innovation, sustainability, and scale.
Roles traditionally seen as “support functions”—like tech sales, partnerships, business development, and revenue operations—are now being acknowledged as key pillars of tech success across the continent.
“At Kora, we understand that technology and innovation must go hand-in-hand with strong sales and go-to-market strategies,” said Chukwuma Ukegbu, Head of Cross-Border Payments & Remittances International at Kora. “Supporting Tech Sales Con is our way of investing in the professionals who are scaling African solutions to the world.”
What to Expect at Tech Sales Con 2025
Tech Sales Con 2025 promises to be a high-impact, content-rich experience, featuring:
-
Industry-leading speakers and panelists from Nigeria’s top tech companies
-
Interactive sessions tailored for sales, partnerships, revenue operations, business development, and tech for sales optimization
-
Networking opportunities with peers, leaders, and recruiters shaping the future of tech in Africa
-
Live pitch and judging sessions, highlighting real-world strategies and revenue-driving solutions
This is the first conference in Nigeria to put revenue professionals at the center of the tech conversation—a much-needed platform in an industry that often prioritizes engineering and product development.
More Than a Conference: A Movement for Commercial Excellence
The collaboration between Kora and TSPC also reflects a broader commitment to bridging the gap between technical innovation and commercial execution. By spotlighting the people behind the sales strategies, partnerships, and playbooks that fuel company growth, the event is reframing the narrative around what it means to work in tech.
