Africa Oil & Power and the African Energy Chamber (AEC) have signed a strategic partnership. Both organizations will be sharing capacities to facilitate investments and deal-making in Africa across their networks.
Under the agreement, the AEC will also become an official partner of the Africa Oil & Power 2018 conference taking place September 5-7, 2018 in Cape Town. As part of the partnership, the Africa Energy Chamber is extending an exclusive discount of 15% to attend the summit to all its members and partners across its network.
“As the AEC, we always encourage all our members to seek new partners and investors and expand their horizons to support their growth across the continent. We believe Africa Oil & Power is a perfect platform for them to do that,” says NJ Ayuk, the chamber’s chairman.
He adds that Africa Oil & Power is an ideal place to strike business deals and meet investors. For its third edition, Africa Oil & Power has put together a prestigious programme with 15 African petroleum and power ministers confirmed to date, 600 C-level delegates and 75+ speakers from across the continent, Europe, Asia, and the Americas spanning the entire value chain, from upstream to power generation.
As Africa’s energy sector enters a new phase of growth and oil prices stabilise around $70, AOP and the AEC have expressed their excitement over this new collaboration which capitalises on renewed optimism across Africa’s investment community.
“The vision of Africa Oil & Power and the Africa Energy Chamber are the same –– to combine a pro-African attitude with a pan-African influence. We are excited to have access to their extensive African energy network,” says Guillaume Doane, the CEO of Africa Oil & Power.
