Togo Digital Awards Winners in Lagos for Immersion Trip

(Togo First) - The Togolese winners from the third edition of the Togo Digital Awards (TDA) are in Lagos, for an immersion trip. Until September 14, they will visit various tech hubs in the Nigeria metropolis.

The trip, organized with the support of the Ministry of Digital Economy and Transformation (through the Togo Digital Agency) and German cooperation GIZ Togo, aims to enhance the skills and networks of these young digital entrepreneurs. 

Lagos is known as Nigeria's "Silicon Valley". It hosts several key digital infrastructures including DTC Lagos, the Co-Creation Hub (CcHub), or the Google Developers Space for Africa and Microsoft. During their visit, the winners will meet entrepreneurs, incubators, and investors in the digital sector to learn from best practices in digital transformation.

According to Guillaume Djondo, commissioner in charge of organizing the Togo Digital Awards, the trip "allows us to discover Nigeria's digital transformation model and draw inspiration from it to strengthen the digitalization dynamic in Togo".

For Gilles Lasson, this year's winner in the "Coup de cœur" category,  it is a unique opportunity to “observe Nigeria's tech ecosystem and learn lessons for Togolese innovation”.

The Togo Digital Awards celebrates excellence in the Togolese digital sector, recognizing the contributions of

entrepreneurs and innovators. This year, the third the event takes place, 25 winners were honored for their efforts to advance digital development in Togo.
