Top 12 African Women in Technology
For years, women and technology are not words that have found use in the same sentence often. The notion has been that tech – like construction, mining, and oil and gas exploration – is an unofficial boys’ club. And there are few places where this stark divide is, or rather has been, apparent than in the cradle of civilization itself, Africa.

Over the last eight years or so, however, the tide has shifted immensely. Women have taken it upon themselves to pull down the ‘No Girls Allowed’ sign hung on the door. And again, in few places has this been more evident than in the great continent. The incredible thing about tech innovations in Africa is that they tend to, in an immense kind of way, positively impact on people, either through agriculture, education, health et al.

Here are top 10 African women who have made great breakthroughs in the field of technology, and are currently sitting pretty in the male-dominated industry.
