“Extractive and energy industries: what infrastructure is needed to support economic development in africa?”
At the heart of the continent’s growth dynamics, extractive and energy industries cannot fully unlock their potential without suitable, modern, and interconnected infrastructure. From production to processing and export, every link in the value chain depends on efficient logistics, energy, and industrial networks.
This theme therefore places a central question at the core of discussions: how can we design, finance, and deploy infrastructure capable of accelerating Africa’s industrialization, while ensuring sustainability, sovereignty, and inclusion?
SIREXE 2026 aims to be a platform for both reflection and action, where public decision-makers, investors, and private sector stakeholders will combine their expertise to build the foundations of a more integrated, competitive, and resilient African growth.
Botswana an inspiring model
With a focus on continental cooperation and knowledge sharing, SIREXE 2026 highlights Botswana, recognized for its exemplary management of mineral resources. This represents a unique opportunity to showcase best practices and strengthen synergies among African nations.
