As all those who were part of We Are Africa 2014 know, our tribe represents more than just a trade show delegation or even a meeting of business minds.

This private event saw the coming together of over 50 conservation specialists to tackle the issues that impact the African wildlife.
With We Are Africa’s inaugural show under his belt, we caught up with Event Manager Ryan Wallace to get the lowdown on the first edition of We Are Africa, and what the team has in store for year two.

The founding principle behind We Are Africa is to showcase the wonders of modern Africa on a truly global stage, forging connections and opening channels of communication in both established and emerging markets. With Asian countries like Singapore, Taiwan, Indonesia and of course, China demonstrating huge leaps in outbound tourism, the time for high-end African travel providers to connect with the right type of travel trade from these regions in order to secure future customers has well and truly arrived.
From honeymoon havens in the Indian Ocean to conservation powerhouses on the Maasai Mara, the We Are Africa tribe truly represents the diversity and individual character of each country on the continent. After a fantastic founding year in which members came together from all corners of Africa, we thought it was time to introduce a few of the new additions who will be joining them for the first time at our 2015 edition.
