The Project & Investment Network (https://apo-opa.co/4qPyeal) (P&IN), created by VUKA Group, supports this by creating a curated environment where project owners can present opportunities and investors can identify high-potential developments aligned with their mandates. With African Infrastructure Elites (https://apo-opa.co/4h4j2mu) as Host Media Partner, these opportunities gain additional reach through one of Africa’s trusted power, energy, water and utility media platforms.
This partnership helps bridge a persistent gap in the market: strong projects need access to capital and investors need credible, well-positioned opportunities.
The Project & Investment Network is a dedicated meeting ground for project developers, financiers, investors, utilities, municipalities, commercial and industrial energy users and strategic partners active in Africa’s power, energy and water sectors.
Through this collaboration, African Infrastructure Elites will support The Project & Investment Network by amplifying the projects, people and investment conversations shaping Africa’s infrastructure future.

Why Africa Infrastructure Elites matters
The African Infrastructure Elites (https://apo-opa.co/4h4j2mu) is an annual initiative by ESI Africa that recognises the projects, leaders and innovations shaping Africa’s power, energy, water and transport markets. The platform profiles the people and projects driving measurable impact across the continent, from generation, transmission and distribution to water, storage, clean energy, infrastructure, mobility and sector-coupling solutions.
For project owners, being associated with Elites creates long-term visibility among decision-makers, policy influencers, technical specialists and investment stakeholders. For investors, it provides a trusted lens into the projects, companies and leaders advancing Africa’s energy, water and transport priorities.
Nominations for the 11th African Infrastructure Elites: Projects and People Magazine are open (https://apo-opa.co/3UQS6xY) until the 2nd of October 2026.
The theme for the 2026/27 edition, Access and Affordability Empowers Security for All, speaks directly to one of Africa’s most pressing development imperatives. Reliable and affordable access to electricity, clean water, sanitation and sustainable transport remains fundamental to economic growth, social wellbeing and long-term resilience.
