Co-founder & Managing Director
Djibril Pierre Clavair Pamousso
Data engineer, trainer and entrepreneur, founder of the Africa Data Fair (GSDA).
Djibril Pierre Clavair Pamousso is a Burkinabè data engineer, trainer and entrepreneur. Co-founder and Managing Director of Africa Data Entry, he helps African businesses accelerate their digital transformation through the strategic use of data.
He holds a Master's degree in Connected Data and Systems from École des Mines de Saint-Étienne in France, as well as a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from Nazi Boni University in Burkina Faso. He began his career in technical support and development before specialising in data engineering. He notably served as a Data Engineer and Data Science Manager at Rocket4Sales in Lyon, where he helped build and grow the company's data team.
An expert in data architecture, pipeline orchestration, data governance and artificial intelligence, he is also deeply committed to knowledge sharing and training. As a dedicated educator, he regularly leads workshops and webinars and co-founded the student association Struct IoT to introduce young people to the Internet of Things and AI.
Driven by the belief that digital transformation must be accessible to all, he is also actively engaged in the fight for digital inclusion, especially for people with visual impairments, to promote a more open, fair and accessible digital world. Convinced that Africa must rely on its own talents to succeed in the digital revolution, he champions a vision of digital sovereignty built on local excellence, through initiatives such as subsidised training.
With a resolutely pan-African vision, he designed and led the first edition of the Grand Salon de la Data en Afrique (GSDA), an event embodying his deep conviction: Africa must no longer be a mere consumer of technology but a full player in the global digital revolution. By bringing together decision-makers, experts, companies and talent, he is helping build a strong, independent and forward-looking African data ecosystem.
