NAIROBI, Kenya — August 10, 2026 — The organizers of the Africa Blockchain Festival 2026 and World Token Summit 4.0 have officially announced the launch of Block & Chill, an exclusive global roadshow series kicking off on 13 August in Nairobi, Kenya.
Designed as an intimate, high-impact networking experience, the Block & Chill tour will travel across nine major tech and financial hubs in Africa, the Middle East, and Europe. The roadshow serves as the official curtain-raiser and ecosystem-building series leading into the joint flagship conferences later this year.
