The second edition of Le Faso Digital, a virtual fair initiated by Lefaso.net, will take place from October 17 to 24, 2026. This entirely virtual event allows internet users to discover companies, institutions, startups, and their digital solutions from the comfort of their homes or workplaces. The fair's theme is "Inclusion, sovereignty, innovation: Towards a digital Burkina Faso for all." The event aims to facilitate meetings between actors in the digital transformation and the population.
To attend the fair, visitors need to create an account on the Le Faso Digital platform. The registration process involves accessing the website, clicking on the "Inscription" button, and completing a registration form. Once validated, visitors can access the exhibition spaces and explore the various stands. The platform offers dedicated access for visitors and presentation spaces for exhibitors.
The virtual fair features stands that replicate the experience of a physical professional fair. Visitors can navigate through digital spaces dedicated to participating companies, institutions, and organizations. Each exhibitor has a space to present their activities, products, services, and innovations. Visitors can explore sectors such as telecommunications, artificial intelligence, digital finance, cybersecurity, and more.
The fair offers two types of stands: premium and interactive. A premium stand is a presentation space that showcases an exhibitor's identity and offerings. Visitors can discover the company, its activities, and explore available presentation materials. An interactive stand functions similarly but with fewer features.
To make the most of their visit, visitors are advised to prepare in advance. They should ensure a stable internet connection and prepare questions to ask exhibitors. Visitors should not limit themselves to familiar companies and take the time to explore various stands, including those of startups and local talents.
The fair also features conferences, panels, and masterclasses. These events provide opportunities for experience sharing and professional networking. Visitors can consult the program and participate in these events to gain a deeper understanding of the digital innovations presented.
Le Faso Digital 2026 aims to bring together companies, institutions, innovators, and citizens around digital solutions that contribute to Burkina Faso's digital transformation. The event is open to entrepreneurs, students, professionals, researchers, and anyone interested in discovering digital innovations.
