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 May 2026 editions of CIO Africa magazine present a diverse range of technology leadership stories from across the continent. East Africa’s Shiro Theuri (Glovo) inspires with her honest account of courage-driven career growth, while South Africa’s Terry-Anne Graham and Ryan Smith (Southern Sun) alongside Mandy Duncan (HPE Networking) demonstrate the power of strategic technology partnerships, and West Africa’s Dominic James (Access Bank PLC) navigates the intricacies of continent-wide core banking migration. All three editions tackle the critical question of whether African women are lagging behind in AI, challenging assumptions and urging deliberate action toward genuine gender inclusion in Africa’s technology future.
