Meet the speakers behind
the 10th Africa Energy Summit
Operators, financiers, regulators and technology leads sharing what is actually working across African energy — practical lessons, honest numbers and conversations worth the flight.
Speaker overview
Government, industry,
finance and the academy.
The programme brings together policymakers, operators, financiers, PETAN members, researchers and international partners around market access, finance, local content and innovation commercialisation. The speakers are drawn from those rooms.
