Where leadership meets action in Africa’s infrastructure and transport transformation

Hosted under the Chatham House Rule, the CEO Forum is an invitation-only executive gathering taking place at South Africa Infrastructure Expo 2026. It unites senior leaders from government, DFIs, investment institutions and the private sector to discuss the future of transport, logistics, mobility and infrastructure across Southern Africa.

With no media, no recordings and a strictly curated guest list, the forum creates a confidential space for honest dialogue, practical insight-sharing and collaborative strategy-setting. Applications for participation have now closed. Thank you for your interest in the forum.
