After a decade of serving as the executive director of AfriLabs, a network of 500 tech hubs across Africa, Anna Ekeledo stepped down in January and is now in the process of hiring her replacement. Whoever gets the role will have their work cut out for them. Since Ekeledo joined AfriLabs, it has grown to over 500 hubs spread across 53 countries, from just 40 when she took over.
