Gauteng will be hosting the second Gauteng Infrastructure Investment Conference (GIIC), taking place 27-28 July 2017 at the Gallagher Convention Centre. It is expected to attract over 1000 delegates.
Mr David Makhura, Premier of Gauteng will welcome delegates, followed by the keynote speaker, Mr Ebrahim Patel, Minister of Economic Development.
The two-day conference will see over 40 discussants and panellists, addressing the theme, “Driving investment for inclusive growth and sustainability, which will look at how the Gauteng government and the private sector can invest in the growth of Gauteng, through the facilitation of trade and strategic infrastructure investment. It will focus on three areas: trade and investment promotion; strategic economic infrastructure; and business enablement.
The GIIC will discuss investment opportunities in the following areas: New Post-Apartheid Cities, Energy, ICT and Broadband connectivity; Aerotropolis; Water and Sanitation; and Inner City Regeneration.
The conference is a key step towards strengthening partnerships and collaboration between government and the private sector in the quest to build Gauteng as a globally competitive city region and a preferred destination for investment and tourism.
Key attendees to this event include policymakers, fund and investment managers, private equity firms, development funding institutions, banks, town planners, engineers, academics and ICT specialists.
“The GIIC is a platform that has been created to engage our stakeholders regarding investment and infrastructure initiatives in the Gauteng City Region. The biennial conference is aimed at realising our goal of industrialising the Gauteng City Region; attracting investors into the Gauteng economy whilst at the same time addressing the current economic climate,” explains Premier Makhura. “We plan to address how, through an aggressive infrastructure-led programme that is directed towards building economic and social infrastructure, together we can lead the economy out of the current economic slump.”
