Infrastructure delivery is increasingly being driven from the ground up, where industrial zones, logistics corridors, and energy hubs converge to enable real economic activity.

In South Africa, the @RichardsBayIDZ is advancing this model, supporting investment across energy, logistics, and manufacturing while leveraging its strategic position along a key port and export corridor.

With a growing base of investors and serviced industrial land, RBIDZ continues to translate infrastructure into industrial output, connecting projects to markets and strategy to execution.

#RBIDZ joins the DEVAC INFRASTRUCTURE SUMMIT 2026 as a #Silver & #SEZ #Partner, taking place on 27 - 28 May 2026 at the NH Sandton Hotel in Johannesburg - South Africa.

Engage with Muzi Shange, Chief Operations Officer of RBIDZ, as he shares practical perspectives on enabling investment-ready zones, supporting industrial growth, and strengthening infrastructure-linked value chains across energy, logistics, water, and manufacturing.

Africa is no longer planning infrastructure... it is delivering it.

From energy and construction to transport, digital, and water, the continent is shifting into a phase defined by execution, bankability, and certainty. The question is no longer what’s possible, but what gets funded and built.

At the core of this shift lies one critical factor: the alignment of policy, capital, and legal certainty.

It is within this context that we are proud to welcome @CDHLegal as #Strategic #Legal #Partner & #Sponsor of the DEVAC INFRASTRUCTURE SUMMIT 2026, taking place on 27 - 28 May 2026 at the NH Sandton Hotel in Johannesburg - South Africa.

With a track record of advising on some of the continent’s most significant infrastructure and energy transactions, CDH continues to play a defining role in enabling project viability, strengthening regulatory frameworks, and supporting cross-border investment flows. Their expertise sits at the intersection of law, policy, and commercial strategy, exactly where Africa’s infrastructure future is being shaped.

Join Jackwell Feris, Director | Head: Industrials, Manufacturing & Trade Sector at CDH, and his team as they lead critical conversations on structuring bankable infrastructure, navigating evolving regulatory landscapes, and unlocking opportunities across energy, transport, construction, water, and digital infrastructure.

Visit Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr (CDH) at Stand DI12 at DEVAC INFRASTRUCTURE SUMMIT 2026 to connect with one of Africa’s leading legal and advisory firms in infrastructure.

As infrastructure delivery accelerates across energy, construction, transport, water, and digital sectors, CDH continues to support stakeholders with the legal and regulatory clarity needed to move projects from idea to execution.

Meet the team and explore how their expertise is helping shape bankable, deliverable infrastructure across the continent.

Africa’s industrial landscape is accelerating. SEZs, IDZs, and economic hubs are turning vision into execution, unlocking investment, strengthening value chains, and positioning Africa as a global manufacturing force.

Following the success and high-impact outcomes of the inaugural edition, the DEVAC SEZs - IDZs - Economic Zones SUMMIT returns in 2026 with an expanded, more focused agenda, bringing together the stakeholders shaping Africa’s next phase of industrial growth.

What’s New for 2026:

Expanded Multi-Track Programme:
This year, the conversation goes deeper with three dedicated investment tracks spanning Africa’s key industrial growth sectors:

➤ TRACK 1: Infrastructure & Energy Investment Opportunities
➤ TRACK 2: Manufacturing, Automotive & Industrial Investment
➤ TRACK 3: Agri-Industrial & Agribusiness Investment

From Dialogue to Delivery:
Building on 2025’s outcomes, the 2026 edition places stronger emphasis on investment-ready projects, implementation strategies, and measurable impact across SEZs and IDZs.

A Broader, More Connected Ecosystem:
Engage with zone authorities, investors, DFIs, policymakers, and industry leaders driving industrialisation across Africa’s fastest-growing corridors.

As global supply chains continue to shift and Africa strengthens its position within the AfCFTA framework, SEZs and IDZs are playing a pivotal role in enabling localisation, boosting exports, and attracting strategic investment into key sectors.

The DEVAC SEZs - IDZs - Economic Zones SUMMIT 2026 will take place on 18 – 19 November 2026 at the Coastlands Umhlanga Hotel and Convention Centre in Durban - South Africa, bringing together decision-makers and project owners at the forefront of this transformation.
