Thousands of satellites orbit among the stars, delivering real-time data, long-term projections, and new pathways for innovation and sustainable development. Africa’s space economy is projected to reach almost $40 billion by 2030, and is claiming its place in the global space race. In the April/May 2026 issue of FORBES AFRICA, we take a look at the continent’s bold ascent into the skies. From an astronaut candidate and a physicist, to the businesses harnessing GeoAI and more, Africa’s space tech stakeholders provide insight on where the continent is headed and how it will get there. We also feature the list of Africa’s richest people in 2026. As billionaire fortunes continue to surge, the 23 members of the continent’s three-comma club are richer than ever, having added a collective $20.3 billion to their combined fortunes. And, from tin-roofed tenements to digital gold, we take a look at the South African townships that are embracing Bitcoin as a part of daily life, in a FORBES AFRICA exclusive. Also in this issue, Nigeria’s film industry, or Nollywood, long defined by its physical distribution is now being reshaped by algorithms, audience data and the economics of digital platforms like YouTube. The alchemist of AI, Sam Altman speaks on building the future his kids will have to live in (and the rest of us, too) and a social engineer gives us insight into cybersecurity and why the biggest threat to a company’s data isn’t technical, but human. From the small entrepreneurs and innovators going all in to close the health care gap to a motorsport trailblazer moving at full throttle, you can read all about it in our latest issue.
