West Africa Back to Business at WAMPEX 2016

What is it about WAMPEX that keeps attracting over 100 global industrial companies, investors and thousands of visitors every two years?

Why do governments, NGOs, trade associations and powerful private sector organisations flock to the West African Mining and Power Exhibition in Accra, Ghana, every second year without fail?

There are many reasons – the most important is that WAMPEX is the biggest networking platform for showcasing products and services directly to the power and mining sector companies that operate throughout West Africa.

Last year, WAMPEX hosted an impressive 140 exhibitors from 16 countries, and next year’s event is bound to grow even bigger. WAMPEX 2016 takes place from 1 to 3 June 2016 at the Accra International Conference Centre in Accra, Ghana.

Expanding Opportunities Across West Africa

“West Africa is still one of the biggest and fastest-growing industrial, mining and power generation markets in the world,” says John Thomson of Exhibition Management Services, organisers of WAMPEX.

“The region has massive gold, copper and iron ore deposits and hundreds of mining projects underway at any given time, all with heavy electricity demands. The Toronto Stock Exchange currently lists about 150 mining projects in the area.”
