Upcoming Events
Our events programme offers a platform for engaging discussions, industry insights, and meaningful connections with key players in the African market. Through a range of events, we facilitate conversations that highlight expertise, explore opportunities, and foster collaboration across sectors.
Join the 22nd Annual AVCA Conference & VC Summit for a transformative experience, filled with thoughtfully curated insights, high-impact networking and opportunities to engage with the ideas shaping the continent’s investment landscape. Under the theme Break The Mold: Reshaping the Future of African Private Capital, this year’s agenda explores the next wave of transformation shaping Africa’s investment landscape.
Africa’s industrial growth is accelerating — but water may be one of its most overlooked constraints. Across mining, manufacturing, agro-processing, and urban expansion, water availability, reliability, and governance increasingly determine which projects scale and which stall — yet it is still too often treated as a utility rather than core economic infrastructure. This session brings together industry, investors, and policymakers to explore how water systems can enable Africa’s industrial future.
As East Africa’s economies expand and regional trade gathers momentum, the role of efficient trade corridors is becoming increasingly important. This event will explore how infrastructure, policy coordination and investment can strengthen connectivity across the region. Bringing together policymakers, investors and business leaders in Nairobi, the discussion will focus on practical pathways to accelerate trade, support regional value chains and unlock new growth opportunities.
The largest annual gathering of Africa’s private sector will take place on 14 and 15 May 2026 in Kigali. For its 13th edition, the Africa CEO Forum will bring together more than 2,500 leading decision-makers from the private and public sectors, around a shared objective: shaping the continent’s new economic priorities and accelerating Africa’s transformation.
After two successful editions of the summit, KPMG Private Enterprise Africa is pleased to host the third edition of its transformative and trend-setting summit. This year, the spotlight shifts, to be held in May 2026, aims to provide delegates with an immersive and forward-thinking experience, fostering a platform for diverse stakeholders to delve into discussions where the audience will shape the conversation.
The theme for The Africa Debate this year is Redefining Partnership: Navigating a World in Transition. As the global order shifts and new economic and geopolitical realities emerge, the forum will explore what these changes mean for African economies and their international partners. Against a backdrop of uncertainty in the global economy, The Africa Debate will spotlight opportunities to accelerate investment, unlock growth, and strengthen development outcomes through a new era of collaboration.
Invest Africa invites you to join us for our annual summer reception. The occasion provides an opportunity to bring together our members for a relaxed evening of networking. We hope to see you there.
