On 22 and 23 October 2025, visionary thinkers, innovators, and entrepreneurs will gather at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg to ignite Africa’s future.

These global thought leaders will take attendees on a journey through transformative technologies that will shape the future of Africa and beyond.

The Singularity South Africa Summit returns this year – presented in collaboration with headline sponsor Old Mutual, event partner South African Tourism and metaverse partner UBU – and tickets are now available on a super early bird special until 1 June 2025.

This was revealed at a media event in Sandton, with the key details of the summit being announced by Singularity South Africa founders and co-CEOs Mic Mann and Shayne Mann.

“Biotech, blockchain, spatial computing, the metaverse – all of these technologies are converging and reshaping our industries, the way we work, and even society itself,” said Mic Mann.

“We’re not just witnessing history. We are building it.”
