Africa Trade Finance Week

Description

Exporta’s Africa Trade Finance Week, incorporating the 7th Annual Africa Trade & Export Finance Conference alongside various stream sessions, roundtables and networking events, will be taking place in Cape Town on March 4-6, 2013.

Now firmly established as the premier trade finance gathering in the region, the new extended format will encompass the significance of the regional and global trade flows in one of the world’s most attractive and lucrative markets.

Reflecting on the impressive growth being experienced in the region, attending delegates will have much to discuss, with particular focus on the changing funding priorities and requirements of African companies as they continue growing their trade flows. With around 300 delegates expected in attendance, including companies of all sizes and from all manner of sectors, strong focus will be placed on the role of both Africa's huge commodity resources, as well as the continuing need for infrastructural development.

Recognising the importance of face-to-face interaction when conducting business, huge emphasis will be placed on the importance of networking over the course of the week, with delegates being given the opportunity to plan and organise private meetings via Exporta in the lead-up to proceedings.
