EVENTS 2024

SCOTLAND LONDON AFRICA WEEK

The first-ever Scotland London Africa Business Week, organised by the Scottish Africa Business Association (SABA), was a landmark event that brought together key industry leaders, Ambassadors, High Commissioners, Scottish Government Ministers, innovators, UK politicians, and entrepreneurs from Scotland, London, and Africa. The programme was filled with insightful discussions, round tables, briefings, meetings and networking opportunities, making it a memorable experience for all our delegates and distinguished guests.

TRADE MISSION TO GHANA

The West African Energy Summit, held on 3rd and 4th September in Accra, Ghana, has emerged as a pivotal event in the region's energy landscape. This year's Summit, which attracted a diverse audience of policymakers, industry leaders, global expert and our Scottish delegation, underscored the transformative potential of strategic partnerships and innovative solutions in shaping a sustainable energy future for West Africa.

Throughout the two days at the Summit, the engagement of policymakers was a standout feature and our organisation, the Scottish Africa Business Association held a number of high-level discussions with government representatives from across the West African region which provided our delegates with critical insights into the policy and regulatory frameworks necessary to drive the energy transition.
