Africa PPP is on the move — and in 2026, we’re heading to Nairobi, Kenya for the 16th edition of the continent’s leading infrastructure partnerships summit.
At a time when infrastructure is shaping Africa’s growth story, this year’s theme sets the tone:
“Building Africa’s Prosperity: Transformative Infrastructure, Investment and Partnerships to Accelerate Economic Development”
Across the continent, momentum is building — from energy and transport corridors to water systems, industrial hubs, and rapidly growing cities. These sectors are more connected than ever, opening up new opportunities for collaboration, innovation, and real project delivery.
Africa PPP 2026 brings together the people making it happen — governments, investors, DFIs, and developers — in a setting designed to spark conversations that lead to action. Every session is built around real, bankable projects, giving you direct access to the opportunities, the insights, and the decision-makers driving them forward.
Hosted in partnership with the State Department for Public Investments & Asset Management (SDPIAM), Government of the Republic of Kenya, this year’s event also shines a light on Kenya’s growing project pipeline, including opportunities across roads, ports, and energy, alongside major developments in urban infrastructure and industrialisation.
Expect a highly focused, decision-maker audience, a speaker line-up of industry experts, a hands-on training workshop, and the chance to get out on the ground with technical site visits — all designed to help turn connections into partnerships.
Africa PPP – Real opportunities. Real conversations. Real impact across Africa’s infrastructure landscape.
