Namibia will host the fifth Canada-Africa Business Conference in Windhoek on 5 February.
The conference brings together business leaders, investors, and policymakers from Canada, Namibia, and other African countries, focusing on mining, energy, infrastructure, and sustainable economic development.
“I’m looking forward to participating in the conference in Namibia because it represents one of Africa’s most compelling investment destinations for the mining sector,” MineAfrica Inc president Wayne Floreani says.
Namibia’s selection as the host for this year’s conference reflects the country’s growing importance in Canada-Africa trade and investment partnerships, according to the Canada-Africa Chamber of Business.
The programme will include panel discussions on natural resource development as well as sustainability and community development.
“The Canada-Africa Business Conference provides a valuable platform for practical dialogue between operators, investors, and policymakers, helping to advance projects that contribute to long-term national development, which we are pleased to support,” B2Gold Namibia country manager John Roos says.
The event is convened by the Canada-Africa Chamber of Business. Last year’s conference was held in Lusaka, Zambia.
