Connecting Scotland and Africa — unlocking opportunities, building partnerships and driving growth
At the Scottish Africa Business Association, we are dedicated to help building connections between Scotland and African markets. Through our diverse programme of events and trade missions, we help businesses, organisations and professionals navigate opportunities, build partnerships and unlock growth across a wide range of sectors.
SABA offers a year-round calendar of varied events held across Scotland. These include private meetings, roundtables, inward trade delegations and webinars, covering sectors such as energy, renewable energy, agriculture, education & skills training, maritime and the blue economy,
For delegates, these events are not just about attending — they are about actively engaging with experts, government officials, industry leaders and fellow professionals who share a passion for Africa’s dynamic and evolving markets.
In addition to our work in Scotland, SABA organises and leads international trade missions to key markets across Africa. These carefully curated missions are designed to give Scottish businesses first-hand insights into African economies, providing opportunities to meet local partners, government representatives and private sector leaders. Our missions are not “one-size-fits-all” — we tailor them to match the needs of participating businesses, ensuring each delegate gains practical, actionable value that can translate into long-term success.
