The conference will take place alongside Global Expo Botswana, scheduled for October 8–11, 2025, under the theme: 'Driving economic growth through investment, trade and enterprise development'.

The platform is intended to facilitate deal-making, enable the uptake of local projects, and elevate Botswana’s profile as an attractive destination to invest, work, and live.
