The African Crossroads is a community of African thinkers and doers who meet every year to reflect critically on the continent's cutting-edge developments anchored in African intellectual and technological traditions. During the inaugural edition, which was held in Marrakech, Morrocco in 2018, participants assessed their roles in shaping Africa’s ongoing technological evolution under the theme 'The Fourth Industrial Revolution'. The 2019 edition, themed 'Sense the City' was convened in Mombasa, Kenya with a focus on the sustainability of African cities. In 2021, African Crossroads organized a hybrid fourth edition that assessed Climate Justice in Africa under the theme "EcoExistence".  After a break from physical gatherings in 2022, African Crossroads returns in 2023 with the theme for this year's gathering being 'Paths to Renewal.'

The African Crossroads network is comprised of entrepreneurs, researchers, scientists, designers, artists, and philosophers from 30 African countries. The events feature workshops, public discussions, exhibitions, art installations, and showcases highlighting the latest ideas, inventions, and innovations in science, art, and technology.
