The Liberia Technology Summit has received several requests from companies and founders in Liberia to speak at the upcoming summit July 21-22, in Monrovia.
The Opportunity:
For the first time, Liberia will host a regional round of the Startup World Cup, the global pitch competition powered by Pegasus Tech Ventures that spans 70+ regional editions in over 100 countries. The Liberia Regional Challenge takes place as part of the Liberia Technology Summit 2026, July 21–22 at the EJS Ministerial Complex, Monrovia.
This is not a local pitch night. It is Liberia’s direct on-ramp to Silicon Valley — and it costs shortlisted founders nothing to take the stage.
What Shortlisted Founders Receive — Free of Charge
• A live 5–7 minute pitch slot in front of government leaders, regional and international investors, diaspora capital, and global tech executives attending the Summit
• Direct visibility to Pegasus Tech Ventures’ investor and advisory network, the same firm that has helped launch startups now valued at over $1 billion
• A shot at advancing to the Startup World Cup Global Finals in Silicon Valley, where regional winners compete for a US$1,000,000 investment prize
• Peer positioning alongside the region’s strongest companies — RegTech Africa’s Abuja edition alone drew hundreds of applications for just 15 pitch slots, and the eventual winner is now Africa’s representative at the Global Finals
Why This Matters for Liberian Founders Specifically:
Liberian startups rarely get a stage this size without leaving the country. This one comes to you. It is a chance to be seen, vetted, and financed on the same platform used by founders in Nigeria, Kenya, the U.S., and 100+ other markets — without the cost of international travel, visas, or entry fees that normally gate access to Silicon Valley capital.
For the country, every Liberian company that competes strengthens the case that Liberia belongs on the global technology map. For your company, it’s free marketing you could not otherwise afford, a pitch in front of the people who write checks, and a real — not symbolic — path to $1 million in investment.
