Mobile App Development for Africa Technology Expo
Overview
Spark Africa Limited, the organisers of the Africa Technology Expo (ATE), partnered with TRCOMS Ltd to develop a powerful mobile app for event access and management.
We built and delivered a cross-platform mobile application (Android and iOS) designed to simplify attendee access, streamline event management, and enhance the overall delegate experience at one of Africa’s leading technology showcases.
, with a focus on clarity, accessibility, and user experience, backed by a content management system that allows their team to update content seamlessly.
Challenges
The Africa Technology Expo needed a modern event app that could:
Handle large-scale attendee registration and ticket validation.
Provide seamless access control during the event.
Deliver real-time event updates, schedules, and venue information.
Support both Android and iOS devices for broad accessibility.
Ensure scalability and reliability for a high-profile, high-traffic event.
Without a dedicated event management app, organisers risked longer entry times, poor attendee experience, and limited engagement opportunities.
Solution
TRCOMS designed and developed a custom-built mobile app for ATE with event-specific functionality:
Cross-Platform App (Android & iOS)
Developed for both major platforms to maximise accessibility.
Optimised for smooth performance across different devices.
Event Registration & Access Control
QR code-based digital ticketing for fast check-in.
Secure attendee authentication to prevent duplication or fraud.
Event Information Hub
Schedules, speaker profiles, and venue maps accessible in-app.
Push notifications for real-time updates during the event.
Scalability & Reliability
Designed to handle thousands of concurrent users.
Backend infrastructure optimised for high-volume, time-sensitive events.
Admin Control Panel
Organisers could manage attendees, validate entries, and send updates directly from the backend system.
Result and Future Outlook
Smooth Event Access – Reduced bottlenecks at entry points with digital ticket scanning.- Stronger Attendee Engagement – Delegates could access real-time schedules and speaker updates in one app.
- Operational Efficiency – Organisers gained visibility and control through a dedicated admin system.
- Cross-Platform Reach – Both Android and iOS apps delivered a consistent experience.
- Professional Brand Presence – A dedicated ATE app enhanced the credibility and digital innovation of Spark Africa Limited.
