About The TechForge 2026

The TechForge is returning in 2026, bringing together thousands of people who are learning, building, working, and finding their direction in tech. For one focused day in Lagos.

The first edition showed us how much people value a space where they can ask real questions, hear directly from people in the industry, and meet others figuring things out too. The TechForge 2026 is taking that further with a bigger room, more voices, and one day built around learning, conversations, and connection.

This December, over 1,000 attendees and 20+ speakers will come together for one day of practical conversations about technology, careers, building, and the realities of working in the industry.

Host

The TechForge 2026 is hosted by The Infinite Community, a community focused on helping developers and people in tech learn, collaborate, build, and grow through practical experiences and shared knowledge. The community is bringing that same spirit into The TechForge, creating a space where people at different stages can meet, learn from one another, and form connections that don’t have to end when the event does.
