But Before the minister gave his speech, everyone rose in homage to the Zambian national anthem.

With the anthem done, Hon. Felix Mutati gave an inspiring keynote speech on day one of the Annual gathering using anecdotes to properly elaborate the importance that Zambia plays in the African tech ecosystem, whilst also inviting investors to invest, assuring a gain on every investment.

He said, “when a gazelle wakes up in the morning, it begins its days by running faster than the Lion, so it doesn’t get eaten by the Lion and likewise the lion has to wake up ready for the hunt, ready to catch the gazelle before it runs out of its reach, it´s survival at its finest. Africa, we must wake up ready to run, there’s no time to waste, Africa keep running, we’ve got great ground to cover, Africa Run, Keep running.”

The 2022 Afrilabs Gathering enters day two today.
