The continent of Africa is on the cusp of a significant transformation as it moves towards industrialization and economic integration. One country that is emerging as a key player in this journey is Mozambique, which is quickly establishing itself as a crucial strategic gateway for global trade and investment. In light of this, the first-ever Africa Ports, Logistics & Infrastructure Summit, endorsed by the Ministry of Transport and Logistics of Mozambique, is set to take place on Tuesday, 23 September 2025, in Maputo. This summit will coincide with the 10th anniversary of the Mozambique Gas & Energy Summit & Exhibition.
Organized by dmg events in partnership with the Ministry of Transport and Logistics of Mozambique, the Africa Ports, Logistics & Infrastructure Summit will bring together over 300 high-level stakeholders from 25 countries.
