We’re halfway through 2025 and what a journey it’s been so far! 🚀
At AfricaWorks, our mission to unlock Africa’s business potential continues to take shape through bold expansion, meaningful partnerships, and industry recognition. The first half of this year has been filled with exciting milestones, and we’re proud to share a few highlights that are shaping the future of work across the continent.

📍 Expanding Our Footprint
We kicked off the year by launching AfricaWorks Lusaka, marking our first location in Zambia. This milestone reflects our continued growth in Southern Africa and our belief in Lusaka’s vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem.
Soon after, we unveiled Agora Village a unique coworking concept designed around creativity, collaboration, and community. Located in the heart of the city, it’s more than a workspace, it’s an experience.
🤝 Forging Powerful Partnerships
In 2025, we’ve deepened our impact through key partnerships that connect our members to global platforms:
Our collaboration with Microsoft for Startups has brought together founders, investors, and innovators across Africa.
Through LetsWork, AfricaWorks members now have access to over 700+ coworking spaces in 100+ cities, giving them the freedom to work from anywhere in the world.
And through our partnership with Cape Tourism, we’re promoting Cape Town as a destination where business meets lifestyle.
🎉 Creating Space for Connection
Across our network, we’ve hosted dozens of events from tech roundtables to community mixers and business workshops. These moments of connection are at the heart of what we do: building a platform where African businesses can grow, share, and thrive.
🏆 Recognition That Fuels Us Forward
We’re also proud to share that AfricaWorks has been named one of Africa’s Fastest Growing Companies in 2025 by the Financial Times and Statista for the 4th year in a row! 🎖️
This recognition is a testament to the power of our members, the dedication of our team, and the momentum of a growing continent that is redefining the future of work.
What’s Next?
As we look ahead to the second half of the year, our focus remains on scaling our impact, delivering value to our members, and building even stronger connections across Africa and beyond. 🌍
Thank you to our community, partners, and team for being a part of this story. The journey continues—and we’re just getting started.
👉 Stay connected. Stay inspired. #AfricaWorks
