Africa is the youngest continent in the world, with 70% of Sub-Saharan Africa under age 30. That’s not a crisis, it’s a creative superpower. But creativity needs infrastructure. From generative art to AI-enhanced storytelling, the creative tech revolution is transforming how we express culture — but high compute costs and unequal access are putting Africa at risk of being left behind. 

 This track explores how we can unlock the full potential of creative technologies, foster diaspora collaborations, and design policies that put tools in the hands of African creators, not just platforms. We’ll also look at the rising energy demands of creative AI tools, tying directly into Africa’s energy debates.
