AMN - CONFERENCE: DRC Mining Week bigger and better

DRC Mining Week is a well-established annual mining investment event aimed at creating and enabling a suitable environment to boost industrialisation of the mining sector. DRC Mining Week has grown over the last 11 years and established its footprint in the DRC and the Copperbelt, engaging with government and key stakeholders.

In 2017, DRC Mining Week, to be held on June 22, 23 and 24 at Lubumbashi, will be even bigger and better than in 2016, including a larger expo, with unlimited outdoor space in which to showcase equipment, tools and machinery.

The three-day program includes:

• A two-day conference for international and national stakeholders to gain knowledge, share insights, network and learn;
• An exclusive, by invitation only, CEO roundtable;
• Business to business (B2B) matchmaking;
• Business to government (B2G) introductions;
• Free-to-attend technical workshops;
• Technology display;
• Product and machinery demonstration opportunities;
• Site visit to really understand mining operations; and
• An indoor and outdoor exhibition giving sponsors and exhibitors the opportunity to promote their solutions directly to the country’s main mining operators with agribusiness, energy and SME zones for industrial and local distributors.

As with last year, DRC Mining Week has secured the impressive support of the industry through the diamond sponsorship of ENGEN, platinum sponsorships of Standard Bank, Sodexo and Tenke Fungurume while Copperbelt Energy Corporation, Total Mining, AEL, Ecobank, Handyman’s Lime, Liquid Telecom and Schlumberger are gold and silver sponsors.
