East Africa Building & Construction Kigali

The East Africa Building & Construction Expo, a key event for the construction industry, is hosted at the Kigali Convention Centre. Since its inception in 1992 by ACE Event Management, the expo has evolved into an annual highlight. Over three days, it provides a platform for professionals in civil, building, industrial, and residential construction to exchange ideas. As a unique meeting point, it enables engineers, architects, and consultants to learn about the latest products, services, and technologies in building materials, construction techniques, and machinery.

Considering the rising population and the need to promote industrialization in East Africa, the expo plays a crucial role in shaping the future of the construction industry in the region. It is distinguished by its focus on innovative solutions and sustainable construction practices tailored to the needs and challenges of the East African market.

A standout feature of the expo is its collaboration with the concurrent Water Africa event, creating synergies in the water management and construction sectors. This allows participants to establish cross-industry contacts and discuss integrated solutions that address both the construction sector and water resource management.

The Kigali Convention Centre, the venue for the event, supports this international trade fair with state-of-the-art facilities and capacity for large international delegations and exhibitions. The center's architecture and technical amenities provide an ideal environment for exhibitions, seminars, and networking events that take place during the expo.

Thus, the East Africa Building & Construction is not just a platform for showcasing products and services, but also a forum for education and networking. A comprehensive seminar program offers insights into current trends, challenges, and opportunities in the East African construction industry. With its long history and specific focus, the expo actively contributes to the development and modernization of the construction industry in one of Africa's most dynamic regions.

The East Africa Building & Construction in Kigali took place from Tuesday, 24. September to Thursday, 26. September 2024.
