Africa Blockchain Festival Partners Truecaller for Travel Connectivity at 2026 Event

The Africa Blockchain Festival (ABF) has announced Truecaller as its Official Travel eSIM Partner for the 2026 edition of the festival, scheduled to hold from October 15 to 17 at the Sarit Expo Centre in Nairobi, Kenya.

The partnership aims to enhance connectivity for international delegates attending the festival, which brings together technology leaders, entrepreneurs, investors, policymakers and innovators from Africa and beyond.

Through the partnership, Truecaller will provide travel connectivity support through its Truecaller Travel eSIM service, enabling delegates to access mobile data while travelling to Nairobi and participating in the event.

With attendees expected from multiple countries, reliable mobile connectivity will be essential for navigating the city, coordinating meetings, accessing digital services and maintaining communication with colleagues and loved ones.

Truecaller Travel eSIM offers international travellers an alternative to purchasing physical SIM cards, allowing them to access mobile data while abroad without the need to replace their existing SIM cards.

The collaboration brings together two organisations focused on improving connectivity and enabling cross-border engagement. While the Africa Blockchain Festival promotes collaboration across Africa’s digital economy, Truecaller Travel eSIM seeks to address the connectivity challenges faced by international travellers.

Speaking on the partnership, Olubunmi Fabanwo, Convener of the Africa Blockchain Festival, said the collaboration would help extend the festival experience beyond the event venue.

“At Africa Blockchain Festival, we are intentional about creating an experience that goes beyond the conversations on stage. Our delegates are coming from different parts of Africa and the world, and staying connected is fundamental to how they travel, collaborate, and engage with the festival.

“Welcoming Truecaller as our Official Travel eSIM Partner allows us to extend that experience beyond the venue, helping participants stay connected from the moment they begin their journey to Nairobi,” Fabanwo said.

The 2026 edition of the Africa Blockchain Festival will bring together key stakeholders in Africa’s growing digital economy to discuss blockchain adoption, artificial intelligence, digital assets, financial infrastructure, regulation and the future of cross-border innovation.

The organisers said both partners would explore opportunities to engage travelling delegates and demonstrate how digital connectivity can support collaboration, mobility and participation in Africa’s expanding innovation ecosystem.
