THE business hub for Africa’s transport professionals

Over the past nine years, the Transport Evolution African Forum has grown to be the continent’s premier meeting place for sector professionals. This year, the high-level conference will once again accelerate new business opportunities in the ports and rail sector.

We are not oblivious to the US$ 200 billion worth of trade in Africa that is carried by the region’s trunk road network. Thus, we are excited to let you know that this year’s agenda will give much needed attention to Africa’s road and corridor development.
