AIX: Gas 2015

28-29 May 2015

Sponsored by Actis and co-produced by African Energy CbI’s respected source of independent analysis on the continent’s energy industries, AIX:Gas responded to new opportunties to commercialise Africa’s gas resources shaped by new discoveries, innovative financing structures and significant power demand.

As one of the panelists stated: “It was the right topic at the right time for sub-Saharan Africa!”

Proceedings were held under the Chatham House Rule and structured round a series of interactive panel-led sessions to facilitate dialogue.

Develop partnerships between Africa’s upstream operators, equity investors, financiers and power developers.
Engage with experts, to assess investor confidence, develop projects and monitor risk.
Meet African entrepreneurs and other stakeholders to gain first-hand insights.
Explore innovative financial structures, commercial returns, entry and exit strategies.
Analyse key markets, such as Algeria, Côte d’Ivoire, Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania and Uganda.

AIX: Gas followed on from a very successful AIX:Energy meeting held in London in November 2014, and provided a trusted environment for investors, developers, service providers and other stakeholders to build contact networks, and create opportunities for future business across Africa.
