SITSummit, scheduled for January 24, 2025, at the University of Lagos, is a groundbreaking event aimed at accelerating progress toward the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by harnessing technology. Organised by Coappt, the summit addresses the critical need for innovation and collaboration in tackling complex social, economic, and environmental challenges across Nigeria, Africa, and beyond.
Through a series of keynote speeches, panel discussions, breakout sessions, and tech demos, SITSummit will spotlight the transformative role of technology in advancing SDGs and driving social impact. The event emphasises the importance of Sustainable Development Goal 17: Partnerships for the Goals, highlighting the necessity of cross-sector collaborations in achieving the 2030 SDG agenda.
With the theme “Leveraging Technology Towards Achieving the SDGs,” SITSummit will attract a diverse audience, including social impact professionals, NGOs, government agencies, tech innovators, investors, and students. Attendees will explore topics like AI, digital inclusion, public-private partnerships, data protection, cybersecurity and ethical tech use, with a particular focus on empowering marginalised communities.
The summit’s program features high-profile keynote speakers, expert-led panel discussions, launch of the Nigeria Social Impact Tech Report and the Tech-SDG Challenge, offering investment and networking opportunities for innovators. Additionally, a Demo and Showcase Arena will allow tech startups and social enterprises to present solutions with potential for high social impact.
SITSummit’s goals are to foster dialogue, promote innovative technologies for SDG alignment, and build sustainable partnerships. As a powerful convergence of thought leaders and changemakers, the event aims to inspire action and empower stakeholders with the knowledge, tools, and networks to drive sustainable development across Africa and globally.
