Igniting a bold future: Driving thought leadership at African Mining Indaba

At Standard Bank, we are dedicated to driving African growth and development. As part of this commitment, we are a proud sponsor of African Mining Indaba 2024, a platform that brings together industry leaders and stakeholders to discuss and grow the mining sector in the continent. Our continued sponsorship of this conference is testament to our belief in the importance of responsible and sustainable mining. We believe in seizing meaningful commercial opportunities aligned with environmental, social and governance (ESG) in the mining sector.  The African Mining Indaba took place from 5 to 8 February 2024 at Cape Town International Convention Centre.

Africa Mining Indaba 2024

African Mining Indaba took place from 5 to 8 February 2024 at Cape Town International Convention Centre. This is an opportune time for the bank to continue cementing its role in driving thought leadership in the mining and energy sectors, which is quite fitting for the conference’s theme this year, which is ‘Embracing the power of positive disruption: A bold new future for African mining’. 

African Mining Indaba is in its 30th year and has become the space for capitalising and developing mining interests in the continent. It has a long-term economic and sustainable growth focus across Africa, additionally supporting education, career development, sustainable development and other important causes in Africa. 
The indaba this year is expected to delve into discussions about integral economic empowerment strategies, supporting supply chain security for the energy transition and taking advantage of investment opportunities during the commodities super cycle.

As the sponsor of African Mining Indaba, Standard Bank is set to play a pivotal role in connecting stakeholders.
