About GPS 2026

Africa's Most
Intentional
Parenting Summit

4th edition. Now going global. One summit that will reshape how you raise the next generation.

Our Story

What GPS Is.
Who It Serves.
Why It Exists.

"We exist because intentional parenting is the most powerful wealth-building strategy a family can deploy."

The Global Parents Summit was born from a simple but profound conviction: that the decisions parents make today about how they raise, educate, and equip their children will determine the wealth, influence, and legacy of Africa's next generation.

GPS serves parents, grandparents, educators, and family leaders across Nigeria and the African diaspora who are ready to move beyond surface-level parenting advice — into the territory of strategy, wealth, and intentional legacy-building.

Founded by Tech Skool Education and convened by Joshua Ogbonnia, GPS has grown from a local conversation to a continental event with global ambition. GPS 2026 is the most expansive edition yet — two full days of world-class programming, premium fireside conversations, and dedicated programming for African families across the continent and abroad.

Our Mission

Tech Skool Education

Tech Skool Education is a member of the E Skool Now Group — a pan-African education collective dedicated to raising the next generation of builders, thinkers, and leaders. Our programmes equip children and families with the tech skills, financial intelligence, and entrepreneurial mindset needed to compete and lead in a rapidly changing world.

GPS is our flagship community event — where the parents behind tomorrow's leaders come to sharpen their vision, expand their network, and commit to a higher standard of intentional parenting.
