Kenya, in its capacity as host country, made a significant impression by presenting its "National Infrastructure Fund." This platform aspires to raise more than $38 billion, with the priority being the modernization of Nairobi's Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, whose expansion aims for a capacity of 22 million passengers. Simultaneously, Tanzania showcased its monumental "Central Corridor." This $11.8 billion electric railway line project intends to link the port of Dar es Salaam to Kigali, with branches extending toward Burundi and the Democratic Republic of Congo. These initiatives highlight a regional connectivity strategy aimed at streamlining commercial exchanges across the East African bloc. The interconnection of networks is becoming a major growth lever.

Mining and urban logistics also rank at the top of the priorities. Zambia defended the Zambia-Lobito rail corridor, a $1.3 billion investment designed to open up the copper belt toward the Atlantic Ocean. In Kinshasa, the "MetroKin" project proposes an $876 million urban electric mobility solution to connect the city center to N’djili Airport. These projects constitute engines of competitiveness for national economies, facilitating the transport of raw materials and improving the productivity of African megacities. Transport efficiency is the guarantor of this industrial dynamic.

The energy component occupies a predominant position, with a strong inclination toward low-carbon solutions. Ghana presented its "Volta Economic Corridor," a massive solar complex integrating battery storage for $650 million. Ethiopia and Uganda complete this picture with solar, wind, and hydroelectric projects, such as the Angololo dam. This rush toward renewable energies testifies to the continent's desire to reconcile industrial growth with environmental sustainability. Every project validated during this session strengthens Africa's structural resilience and offers a long-term vision for the integration of its markets. The success of this mobilization will henceforth depend on the capacity of States to offer sufficient governance guarantees to reassure capital markets. Every investment fortifies the economic autonomy of tomorrow.
