ETHSafari is Africa’s largest builder-first Ethereum festival, bringing together 300+ developers, 100+ projects, and top Kenyan universities. The festival features pre-event hackathons, startup showcases, and interactive networking sessions across Kenya’s Ethereum ecosystem.
Scroll’s sponsorship aimed to:
Showcase 9 Scroll Node founder projects to African developers and builders.
Increase visibility and adoption of Scroll zkEVM infrastructure.
Enable early-stage product testing, community engagement, and ecosystem partnerships.
Our mission is to empower African builders with direct access to global Ethereum ecosystems, enabling stronger adoption, faster iteration cycles, and more sustainable early traction for locally-relevant Web3 applications.
Most early-stage blockchain projects in East Africa lack structured access to developer communities, real user feedback, and direct exposure to infrastructure teams, which slows down adoption, testing, and product-market validation.
ETHSafari provides an in-person builder-first environment where founders can demo products, onboard users, test assumptions in real-time, and build direct relationships with L2 ecosystems like Scroll. Through presentations, live user testing, and booth sessions, the event accelerates validation, community alignment, and early traction for new Web3 products.
