IEEE IES Hubs & Nodes – Africa Final Competition 2026
The IEEE IES Hubs & Nodes Africa Final Competition 2026 brings together the winning teams from national/local Hubs & Nodes competitions across Africa for the continental final stage of the initiative. Over two days, finalist teams compete in a Technical Challenge (project pitching before an expert jury) and a Non-Technical Challenge track (professional pitching, a closed IES pitch session, and a mock-trial "Powerverse Tribunal" exercise). The program also includes an official Opening Ceremony, IES panel and keynote sessions, thematic round tables, and structured networking. The event reinforces IES's five strategic pillars retaining Young Professionals, bridging the generational gap, reconnecting industry to IES, growing IEEE structure, and regional proximity with particular focus on the Student-to-Young Professional transition through direct mentorship. Awards include the Technical Challenge Winner and Best Ambassador.
