    Africa's tech talent is increasingly migrating abroad, seeking better opportunities in Europe, the US, and beyond. Despite their skills being in demand on the continent, the allure of better working conditions overseas is driving this trend. While this has positive effects, such as raising Africa's tech profile and remittances, it also leads to brain drain and hinders local startups' competitiveness. We must work towards a stronger tech ecosystem in Africa that retains and nurtures talent. Key steps include creating more local opportunities, encouraging investments from tech talent abroad, and supporting African tech development.
