- Global Spotlight on Indigenous Innovation and Konga’s Rise
In a major boost to Nigeria’s global tech aspirations, Zinox Technologies, an integrated tech solutions provider and a prominent player in the nation’s ICT ecosystem, has been officially invited to represent Nigeria at VivaTech Paris 2025, one of the world’s premier technology and innovation summits.
The invitation was extended in collaboration with Nigeria’s Federal Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy, marking a strategic recognition of Zinox’s impressive two-decade legacy in delivering cutting-edge digital infrastructure, enterprise solutions, and innovation across Nigeria and parts of Africa. Their impact spans government institutions, corporate entities, and households nationwide.
Scheduled for June 11–14, 2025, the four-day event is a key gathering on the global tech calendar, attracting startups, investors, corporate leaders, and innovators from around the world. At VivaTech, Zinox will host an official booth, engage with international stakeholders, and showcase flagship projects that highlight Nigeria’s growing digital capabilities and innovation potential.
“Zinox represents the kind of indigenous innovation the world needs to see more of — practical, scalable, and deeply rooted in local challenges,” said one of the international event leads, who confirmed their excitement about Zinox’s participation. “It’s a unique opportunity to place African tech at the centre of global conversations.”
From Local Execution to Global Attention
Zinox’s reputation has largely been built on its ability to execute high-impact, often mission-critical tech projects for both public and private sector players. The company is known for powering most government and corporate sector tech infrastructure rolling out the most integrated ICT projects and partnering global manufacturers with its iPower renewable energy solutions.
Zinox is credited with transitioning Nigeria from analogue to digital democracy, amongst many other critical projects for companies like Chevron, Shell, FIRS, CBN, NPC, and educational institutions just to mention a few.
Its inclusion at VivaTech reflects growing international curiosity about Nigeria’s digital innovation and infrastructure story, particularly from brands that have built success indigenously.
Konga, the e-Commerce Engine, Joins the Spotlight
In an interesting strategic angle, Zinox will also showcase Konga, the composite e-commerce group it acquired in 2018. The move united two major tech forces under one umbrella and enabled a fusion of logistics, fintech, and commerce with Zinox’s core technology expertise.
Since the acquisition, Konga has benefited from infrastructural reinforcements, platform upgrades and supply chain optimization, becoming Nigeria’s most efficient digital marketplace.
