What does Africa need to do differently over the next decade to turn its economic potential into measurable results?
That question will be at the heart of the AFRICON Leadership, Investment & Entrepreneurship Summit & Awards 2026, taking place from 9–11 November 2026 at the Julius Nyerere International Convention Centre in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
Under the theme “From Dialogue to Delivery: Shaping Africa’s Next Decade,” AFRICON will bring together more than 1,000 African leaders, policymakers, investors, CEOs, entrepreneurs and development partners from more than 20 countries.
The Summit is particularly relevant for investors and businesses looking at Tanzania. Its exclusive Investment Deal Room will provide a curated environment for investors to meet government representatives, investment promotion agencies, project owners, financial institutions and potential business partners.
Beyond investment, AFRICON will address Africa’s wider economic priorities—from industrialisation and manufacturing to regional integration, digital transformation, entrepreneurship, women’s economic participation and youth leadership.
The programme will combine high-level Leadership Forums, investment and business engagements, strategic networking and the prestigious AFRICON Awards.
The message is clear: Africa does not need another conversation without action. It needs partnerships that turn ideas into investment, investment into businesses, and businesses into jobs and sustainable growth.
Dar es Salaam is where that conversation—and those connections—will take place.
