Monthly Round-Up- May 2025

This spring has been a busy one for the Chapter54 team! From Morocco to Kenya, and from major tech gatherings to new partnerships, we’ve continued building connections across African and European tech. Here’s a quick look at where we’ve been and what we’ve been up to:

The entire Chapter54 team headed to Morocco! Our first stop was GITEX AFRICA in Marrakech, where we enjoyed connecting with like-minded tech players from across Africa and Europe. Two breakfasts organized with OVHcloud and Kikimora proved particularly fruitful. We then travelled to Casablanca for business meetings with our accelerated scaleups Altaroad and Agurotech.

💡 We were proud to join Evrotrust, a regtech accelerated by Chapter54, in co-hosting the Digital Trust Forum in Kenya, alongside partners like the Communication Authority of Kenya, Zoho Sign and MN Legal. The event brought together 60+ participants and sparked conversations on how trust services are transforming compliance and digital security across the continent.

📖 Chapter54 Scaleup BUKU signed a new partnership with Éditions Economica and L’Harmattan, marking another chapter in their mission to provide students and educators with world-class resources and expanding access to French-language academic and professional content across Africa.

As always, we're here to support ambitious European Scaleups on their journey to expand across Africa. If you're on this path, let's connect!
