Registration for UbuntuNet-Connect 2025 has now officially closed as of 30th September 2025. We are delighted by the overwhelming interest and strong response from across the research and education networking community, reaffirming the conference’s role as the premier platform for knowledge exchange and collaboration in Eastern and Southern Africa.
This year’s conference will be held under the theme “Resilient and Sustainable Research and Education Networks for the Future”, a timely focus that speaks to the pressing need for robust, future-proof digital infrastructure to support research, education, and innovation across the continent. The conference will bring together stakeholders from national research and education networks (NRENs), universities, global partners, and technology providers to explore strategies, share experiences, and shape the future of connectivity and collaboration in Africa.
The UbuntuNet-Connect 2025 programme is now available here. We encourage all participants to take a look and familiarize themselves with the sessions, keynotes, and panel discussions that await. With a diverse line-up of speakers and topics, the programme promises engaging and impactful conversations.
While registration is now closed, there are still opportunities to be part of the conference as a partner or exhibitor. Organizations interested in showcasing their innovations and engaging with Africa’s research and education networking community are invited to reach out to us at info@ubuntunet.net.
UbuntuNet Alliance looks forward to welcoming the community to UbuntuNet-Connect 2025. Together, we will continue building resilient and sustainable networks that empower research and education across Africa and beyond.
