Top Mining Leaders and Investors to Headline MOTA 2023 Featuring Africa’s Top Mining Investment Countries

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, May 18, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- The 6th Mining On Top Africa (MOTA) conference taking place at The Westin Paris – Vendome in the French capital on July 12th and 13th, 2023, is set to feature some of Africa’s most important players in mining. The event, which serves as a strategic forum for key stakeholders across Europe to connect with mineral and metal exploration companies from Africa, will seek to drive collaboration and partnerships for sustainable mining across the continent. Many of Africa’s most attractive mining investment destination countries are confirmed to attend including DR Congo, Mali, Niger, Senegal, Zambia as well as Cote D’Ivoire and Guinea which will both have dedicated country spotlight sessions, all showcasing their abundant mineral resources and new developments in sustainable mining practices.

MOTA is the ideal meeting place for government officials looking to attract in-country investment, mining majors seeking new projects, and explorers looking to raise capital with over 50 organisations represented at this year’s edition. Senior government Ministers already set to headline the conference include Hon. Samou Seidou Adambi, Minister of Water and Mines of Benin, Mme. Ousseini Hadizatou Yacouba, Minister of Mines of the République du Niger and Hon. Oumar Sarr, Minister of Mines and Geology of Senegal.

A diverse group of participants will join government representatives, including mining and exploration companies and investors, to explore the theme “Mining Tomorrow” in the context of rapidly growing demand for critical minerals globally and the need to drive a matching growth in mining investment to achieve sustainable development. The conference is a unique opportunity to showcase the vision and plans of key stakeholders, including recent policy updates, successful projects, and efforts to foster investment interest in African mining.

Top sessions at the conference will include a Keynote Panel Session on Africa’s Mining Vision looking at future perspectives, challenges and opportunities. This session will draw on the input of high level sector representatives to discuss creating dynamic cross continental mineral supply chains in Africa, promoting local value addition, exploring alternative cost-effective energy sources and attracting investors amidst the backdrop of political uncertainty.

Speakers will connect the dots between the burgeoning demand for mining capital in Africa and the investment and funding opportunities available as well as the reforms needed to catalyse financing. The Future of Europe’s and Africa’s Mining Partnership will also come into focus in another session where players active across the two continents will define priorities for commodity security, attracting foreign investment and partnerships in training, technology and innovation. The conference will feature panel discussions, case studies and opportunities for networking among attendees.
