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 August 2026 editions of CIO Africa magazine bring together three governance-focused technology voices from across the continent. East Africa’s Angela Wamola (GSMA) champions digital transformation that works for everyone, while South Africa’s Tando Luyaba (Information Regulator) has built an award-winning career protecting one of the nation’s most valuable assets, and West Africa’s Eng. Nasir Shinkafi (Galaxy Backbone Limited) confronts Nigeria’s position at the heart of Africa’s digital paradox. All three editions form part of the Smart Gov special issue and explore the delicate balance women in leadership must strike to avoid an Icarus-like fall.
