Companies and business leaders from across Africa are expected to converge in Accra for the Africa Business Forum & Awards 2026, scheduled for October 17, 2026, at the Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City.
The continental business gathering, powered by KN Unique Communications, a subsidiary of KN Communications Group, is expected to bring together companies, CEOs, entrepreneurs, investors, institutions and senior business executives from across African markets.
According to the organisers, representatives from 42 African countries are expected to participate, alongside hundreds of CEOs, business leaders and companies.
The event, under the theme “Shaping Africa’s Business Future,” is designed to provide a platform for businesses from West, East, Central, North and Southern Africa to connect, exchange ideas and explore potential partnerships across borders.
Key issues affecting Africa’s business environment, including investment, innovation, entrepreneurship, technology, leadership, business expansion and sustainable growth, will feature prominently at the forum.
The organisers say the gathering will give business leaders an opportunity to engage in discussions on Africa’s evolving commercial landscape while creating connections between companies operating across different markets.
The forum comes at a time when African businesses are seeking opportunities for regional expansion, strategic partnerships and access to new markets.
