Details

The East African infrastructure industry is currently growing exponentially, with investment happening across industries, the roads, corridors and highways projects are getting them much deserved attention.

With Kenya and Tanzania having the advantage of ports and access to landlocked countries, the need for an efficient and safe road infrastructure is vital in the transport of goods due to 90%|of trade across Africa is happening through sea.

To this end, we are organising the East African Roads & Corridor Conference, addressing several challenges including understanding the PPP process, financing, safety & security, and the updates of the current projects.
