2026 Agenda Sessions

Are shorter trade corridors the blueprint to unlocking Africa’s logistics potential?

WHAT IF Africa’s mining, trading, and logistics companies could bypass traditional, congested routes and instead leverage a new network of shorter, smarter trade corridors? Imagine a future where goods move seamlessly across the continent, distances are dramatically reduced, and supply chains become truly agile. 
 
In this session, panellists will discuss how partnerships with authorities and project developers are bringing these solutions to life, and how each new corridor contributes to a diversified approach to infrastructure and logistics across Africa – enabling companies to access markets more effectively and driving growth along key routes.
