Cybastion specializes in cybersecurity and e-government solutions – providing highly innovative and customized digital solutions and technologies.

Cybastion CEO and President, Dr. Thierry Wandji, said: "I am honored to be part of this year's Summit and even more so as a platinum sponsor of the event. Cybastion strives to help bridge the cybersecurity gap between Africa and that of more developed countries. We do this by providing cybersecurity solutions, infrastructure, digital technologies, cyber insurance solutions and training. Africa is brimming with potential - with a large young population, and this translates into a incredible wealth for the digital economy If young people are properly trained, they can develop the products of the future and create an ecosystem that can grow in proportion to their country's GDP. We are excited to bring the full power of American technology to the rest of Africa and the rest of the world.

Cybastion’s African footprint has expanded significantly over the past year. With the support of various US government agencies and support from the US Chamber of Commerce and the Corporate Council on Africa, Cybastion has been able to exploit business opportunities in several African countries. The company's commitment to the African continent and its hard work culminate at the Summit with the signing of several agreements with African partners, before, during and after the Summit.
