Reflections from the EU-African SME Summit 2025 – Scaling Africa’s Sustainable Future
Last week, Your Digital SA had the honour of attending the 3rd EU-African SME Summit 2025 in Johannesburg, a powerful gathering of over 300 entrepreneurs, policymakers, and business leaders from across Africa and Europe.
Under the themes of AfCFTA and the EU’s Global Gateway Strategy, the summit showcased real momentum toward unlocking trade opportunities and building strong, export-ready African SMEs.
From high-level policy discussions to hands-on B2B matchmaking, we gained valuable insights and connections—especially in sectors like digital, sustainability, and cross-border trade.
A heartfelt thank you to SEDFA (Small Enterprise Development and Finance Agency) for their support and commitment to empowering local entrepreneurs. Your dedication to SME growth and international readiness made our participation possible and impactful.
At Your Digital SA, we remain focused on helping African entrepreneurs become digitally visible, globally competitive, and investment-ready.
This summit was another step toward that goal.
Let’s continue building bridges between Africa and the EU—through action, collaboration, and innovation.
