Africa Financial Summit 2026 chooses Luanda to continue its mission of integrating African finance

The Africa Financial Summit – AFIS, the leading platform for African finance, announces that its annual summit will be held on November 3 and 4, 2026, in Luanda, Angola. For the first time, the summit will take place in Southern Africa, confirming its pan-African reach and its ambition to connect all of the continent’s financial ecosystems.

Created in 2021 by Jeune Afrique Media Group and the International Finance Corporation (IFC), AFIS has quickly established itself as one of the main platforms for dialogue between leaders of Africa’s financial industry, regulators, and public decision-makers.

The summit brings together more than 1,250 participants each year and combines high-level strategic sessions, technical workshops, bilateral meetings, and networking spaces designed to foster the conclusion of partnerships and transactions.
