Africa’s top deal-making and networking event
Networking doesn’t have to be awkward or transactional. At the Nairobi Talent Social, we’re building a space where real connections happen – the kind that lead to career moves, collaborations, and conversations you didn’t see coming.
Every edition is intentionally designed to connect people who are building, hiring, or simply exploring what’s next in their journey.
Most people walk into networking events scanning for recruiters or roles. That’s fair. But the truth is, some of the best opportunities rarely come from the obvious places. They come from the unexpected conversations – with people you didn’t plan to meet.
Why you should come:
-
Meet thoughtful founders, hiring managers, and top talent in Africa’s startup scene
-
Have conversations that go beyond “what do you do?”
-
Share what your team is working on — or what you’re looking for
-
Grab a drink, ease into the evening, and walk away with at least one unexpected lead worth following up on
Who’s this for?
-
Founders and hiring managers
-
Professionals exploring new roles or teams
-
Recruiters, talent leads, and ecosystem builders
Sign up and you’ll get more info about locking in your spot! ####
