Organized by Blockfuse Labs in partnership with EthJos, ProdFest2025 promises to be Africa’s most practical and impactful Web3 experience, bringing together developers, founders, investors, policy makers, and tech enthusiasts in one collaborative space.
Set to take place this August in Jos, Plateau State, Nigeria, ProdFest is not your typical blockchain conference filled with jargon, empty talks, and promotional flyers. Instead, it’s a hands-on, immersive experience where ideas evolve into real products — and conversations lead to real partnerships.
What Makes ProdFest2025 Different?
At its core, ProdFest2025 is built around action — not hype. With a strong focus on products, protocols, and purpose, this event is shaping up to be a game-changer for Africa’s Web3 ecosystem.
Unlike conventional tech summits, ProdFest will feature:
- Live product demos from African Web3 builders
- Startup pitches and protocol showcases
- Insightful panel discussions that go beyond buzzwords
- Interactive partner booths from major ecosystem players
- Intimate networking zones designed for meaningful connections and real deals
Whether you’re already building, thinking about investing, or just curious about Web3’s potential in Africa, ProdFest2025 is where you want to be.
Who Should Attend ProdFest2025?
ProdFest is open to a wide range of participants from across the tech and innovation landscape. This includes:

- Venture Capitalists: Investors scouting Africa’s next breakout blockchain protocol

According to organizers, ProdFest is less about titles and more about contribution. The emphasis is on collaboration, shared learning, and pushing real progress within Africa’s decentralized future.
Why This Event Matters for Africa
Africa is no longer on the sidelines of the global Web3 conversation. The continent is emerging as a frontier of innovation, with startups and developers addressing real challenges, from cross-border payments to identity verification, supply chain transparency, and more.
