Summit format & key facts
Organized detailsOverview
SMI-CYBIA 2026 is accepting registrations for its African Cybersecurity & AI Summit on 13–14 November 2026 at the Douala Convention Center, with a free standard pass available.
Complete summit details
The two-day summit combines cybersecurity and AI conferences, workshops, demonstrations, an exhibition, startup and careers programming, a hackathon/Wargame environment and networking. The official ticket surface currently provides a free standard pass that includes panels and conferences, workshops subject to available seats, exhibition/demonstration access and general networking. Premium tiers also exist, but a crawler discrepancy was observed in one student-tier amount, so no potentially conflicting paid price is repeated here.
Eligibility requirements
Open to professionals, students, startups, institutions and other participants interested in cybersecurity, AI, digital sovereignty, careers and technology innovation; access to some workshops may depend on seat availability or ticket tier.
Tips for this summit
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Check whether participation is open registration, competitive selection, nomination or invitation-only.
- Review funding, travel, accommodation, visa-support and delegate-fee terms separately; “fully funded” should be confirmed on the official source.
- Prepare a concise professional profile and motivation statement focused on the summit theme and expected participant contribution.
Verification notes
The official organizer site confirms 13–14 November 2026 at Douala Convention Center and a FREE standard pass. A discrepancy across crawler surfaces for one paid student/VIP amount was deliberately not resolved by guessing; only the unambiguous free standard option is structured.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
