SIDSSA26 | Wrapping Up: Infrastructure for Growth and Competitiveness

As the Sustainable Infrastructure Development Symposium South Africa (SIDSSA26) wraps up in Cape Town, the focus remains on “Shaping the Future of Municipal Infrastructure.”

In his keynote address, President Cyril Ramaphosa emphasised the central role of infrastructure in driving inclusive economic growth and regional integration. He noted that South Africa has fixed a fragmented infrastructure development system through the Infrastructure Development Act and the establishment of Infrastructure South Africa, with significant growth in the Strategic Integrated Projects pipeline.

The Symposium concluded with a high-level Mayoral Leadership Exchange on “Building Africa’s Competitive Port Cities: Infrastructure as a Catalyst for Trade, Logistics and Investment,” where mayors and municipal leaders deliberated on how infrastructure can strengthen Africa’s port cities as hubs for trade and investment.
