Invited as a speaker on the intersection of AI, XR, and cross-border partnership-building — sharing how young founders can compete globally without proximity to global tech hubs.
Spoke on how technology is one of the best levers available today for overcoming geographic barriers. Through three projects — LD Leads (France), Insynct (international real estate), and Oziri (Algeria) — shared how AI lets a young founder build partnerships remotely, on merit rather than proximity.
Also covered the XR side of the journey: the UnitedXR Europe Builders Program and the Artsphere project, as concrete proof that African innovation can answer global challenges, not just local ones.
"African youth doesn't have to catch up to global technology. AI and XR are still young fields — being present today is the chance to shape them, not just adopt them."
