• The challenge of the skills and experience deficit
• Managing the expectations of the communities
• Building a vibrant national industrial sector
• Opportunities for regional cooperation to leverage scarce resources
• How to attract Foreign Direct Investment
• The opportunities for infrastructure investment
• How to finance mega projects

As two areas of intense focus have emerged in the past 6 years with world-class gas discoveries offshore Mozambique and Tanzania, as well as substantial oil discoveries in Uganda and Kenya, East Africa Oil & Gas Summit participants will discuss the abundant opportunities available in the region.
