Infrastructure Africa and African Infrastructure Developers Association (AfIDA) are proud to announce the launch of the Project Deal Room. The Projects Deal Room is a dynamic hub where project developers, investors, financiers, and stakeholders converge to present infrastructure project development opportunities and to drive impact in terms of success rates and speed of execution of these projects crucial for Africa’s sustainable development.
This is part of AfIDA’s highly effective Catapult Accelerator.
Facilitating Project Collaboration
The Projects Deal Room is designed to facilitate collaboration and drive investment in vital infrastructure projects across the continent. Project developers from across the private and public sector, will have the opportunity to showcase their initiatives, while investors and financiers can explore potential investment opportunities that align with their investment strategies.
Structured Presentation Sessions
Eight project developers will be allocated one hour each, consisting of a 20-25 minute presentation followed by a 35-40 minute Q&A session with a group of mentors and the audience. This structured format ensures comprehensive insights into each project’s scope, potential impact, and investment requirements.
AUDA-NEPAD Nominations and Call for Developers
Three projects have already been nominated by AUDA-NEPAD, underscoring the calibre and relevance of initiatives featured in the Projects Deal Room.
Additionally, a call for five other developers of infrastructure projects from across the continent is enclosed, inviting all energy and infrastructure developers, regardless of stage or sub-sector, to participate.
Diverse Sectoral Focus
Projects spanning various sectors, including energy, water, transport, digital-ICT, urban development, and cities, will be showcased at the Projects Deal Room. This diversity reflects the forum’s commitment to addressing Africa’s infrastructure needs comprehensively and driving sustainable development across multiple sectors.
Encouraging Collaboration and Innovation:
The Projects Deal Room serves as a catalyst for collaboration and innovation, bringing together stakeholders from across the infrastructure ecosystem to exchange ideas, forge partnerships, and drive impactful initiatives that propel Africa’s development agenda forward.
