WELCOME TO THE SUMMIT THAT DEFINES THE FUTURE OF SUSTAINABILITY IN AFRICA

The Africa Sustainability Symposium is a high-level conference attended by CEOs and other C-Suite executives that provides the ultimate platform to define the future of the important subject of sustainability in Africa.

This ground-breaking pan-African conference is the largest gathering of key decision makers from the private, public, non-profits and academic/research institutes in the Africa and globally.

The need for a more sustainable future in Africa has come into sharp focus following the massive disruptions brought by the Covid-19 pandemic, the Russian-Ukraine war and conflicts in a number of African countries, which have led to high food prices and general disruptions in supply chains across the Continent – including the vital access to healthcare.

The conference provides the perfect platform to discover and learn from some of Africa’s leading start-ups, conglomerates and multi-nationals; Government agencies and NGOs/development partners; and universities and research institutes about the latest practices and technologies to mainstream sustainability in Africa.

At the Summit, the stakeholders will be looking at more than just availing more locally-grown and manufactured goods to Africa’s growing population, but also how to urgently create more prosperous, just and stable local societies and economies; accelerate renewable energy transition; boost cleaner and circular economy initiatives and other sustainability related topical issues – with urgency and scale across Africa.

THE SPEAKERS

The Summit will bring some of the leading voices from Africa and the World to share their insights and knowledge on how to mainstream sustainable practices and new technologies in Africa, including:
