Every great project has a story, but not every story is told in a way that wins. This webinar walks CIOs, technology leaders, and their teams through what it takes to turn a strong project into a strong CIO100 Awards entry. We're bringing together the people closest to the judging process to demystify what happens after you hit submit, and what separates the entries that place from the ones that don't.

LATEST MAGAZINE

The CIO Africa magazine is your source for the most current thinking on the pressing issues at the intersection of business, technology, and leadership. We work hard to bring you insightful articles and commentaries from leading minds across industries to help you stay on top of the trends shaping our world.

The September 2026 editions of CIO Africa magazine bring together three technology leaders navigating very different terrains of IT leadership. East Africa’s Stanislaus Banda (Osho Chemical Industries Ltd) reflects on 18 years of growth within one organization, while South Africa’s Kabelo Makwane (Google South Africa) reveals how Googleyness powers agile collaboration, and West Africa’s Patrick Okebu (Interswitch Group) shares hard-won lessons from managing Nigeria’s Japa crisis and constant operational fires. All three editions urge caution against blindly trusting AI’s version of reality and showcase Ol Pejeta Conservancy’s drone-driven conservation success across 260-plus missions.
