Cassava Technologies has been named the 2026 Pan-African Champion at the Africa CEO Forum Awards.
The award was presented during the Africa CEO Forum Gala Dinner held in Kigali on May 14, bringing together top business leaders, policymakers, and investors from across Africa.
Cassava Technologies’ President and Group CEO, Hardy Pemhiwa, accepted the award and also participated as a panellist in discussions focused on Africa’s digital future. The conversations highlighted the important role of infrastructure in accelerating digital transformation and enabling inclusive economic growth.
The recognition is testament to Cassava’s continued investments towards building Africa’s digital backbone. These investments have allowed Cassava to become an enabler of digital transformation for enterprises, governments and communities. This is especially the case in regions where access to reliable digital infrastructure has previously been limited.
The Africa CEO Forum Awards celebrate organisations and leaders driving innovation, industrialisation and economic transformation across the continent. The Pan-African Champion category specifically recognises companies that demonstrate strong regional expansion, contribute to economic integration and maintain a long-term commitment to growth across multiple African markets.
