Networking for tech & startup events in Nairobi
Founders, engineers and operators come to your event to meet people who can move something forward. Most of them leave with a few business cards and no follow-up.

What people at tech & startup events actually ask for
Aggregated from 35 events in Nairobi. Individual attendees are never identified.
The problem isn't attendance
A tech room is full of people who need each other and have no way to find out. The founder raising is standing next to the angel investor. The engineer looking for a co-founder is queuing behind one.
Digital Exhibitor
Sell more exhibitor slots than you have floor space.
Every event sells out its floor before it sells out its demand. The companies too small for a booth, the ones who decided too late, the ones who couldn't justify the travel — today they represent nothing in your numbers.
Digital Exhibitor is a tier below your booth price. They get a profile inside your event's Arena, placement in attendee discovery, and a record of who engaged with them. You keep the relationship, the pricing and the invoice. It doesn't compete with your floor — it catches what falls through it.
- A revenue line from companies who were never going to buy a booth
- Physical exhibitors get the digital layer included — a richer package
- Measurable sponsor outcomes at renewal, instead of estimated footfall
- No extra work for you — companies build their own profiles
The room connects itself
Attendees say what they need. Cardtag matches them to the people who can help — before the doors open and while they are still in the room.
Proof it worked
An event report with headcount, connections made and how your event compares. Share it with a sponsor through a private link you can revoke.
