African Conferences, October 18th - 24th

Mining in Motion

19th - 21th October 2026 - Accra-Ghana

​A continental platform advancing Africa’s mineral future through policy alignment, coordination, and implementation.

The African Minerals Policy Forum – Mining in Motion (AMPF–MiM 2026) marks a defining evolution in Africa’s mining dialogue—shifting from fragmented engagement to structured, policy-led coordination at a continental level.

Building on the success of the 2025 Summit, AMPF–MiM 2026 transitions decisively from dialogue to implementation, providing a high-level platform for African Ministers of Mines, policymakers, industry leaders, and development partners to align around a shared vision for the continent’s mineral future.

This is not just a conference. It is a continental mechanism for coordination, policy alignment, and long-term transformation.

As the world navigates economic shifts, technological change and evolving political alliances, Africa is asserting a more confident voice.

With a young, entrepreneurial population and increasing engagement on the global stage, Africa is helping to shape the next era of global development.

Taking place across two in-person days, the FT Africa Summit 2026 will convene leading policymakers, business leaders, financiers and visionaries to explore how Africa can sustain this momentum amid uncertainty. From reimagining trade and financing models to investing in infrastructure, skills and sustainable growth, the summit continues to offer an unparalleled platform for African leaders in business, finance and policy to collaborate — and engage on the topics shaping the future of the continent.
