About Event
Enlit Africa recognises that physical presence is not always feasible, but that should not prevent you from taking advantage of the opportunity. You can participate in the conference virtually and engage with other attendees just as if you were present in person.
Certain elements of the event were offered virtually. Attending the event virtually offered an experience that is comparable to being physically present. Attendees had the chance to gain invaluable industry knowledge, engage in conversations with other participants, and establish and fortify relationships that can lead to new opportunities.
The Enlit Africa 2023 Show Guide by ESI Africa gave all attendees valuable access to exclusive Enlit Africa Interviews, insights and information connecting the African Power & Energy sector, Sponsor & Exhibitor listings, floorplan map and event programme.
