Angola has been a big business story in Africa for a while...
Thank you for your fruitful participation at last week’s 2nd annual Infrastructure Partnerships for African Development (iPAD) Angola at the Tropico Hotel in Luanda. This event was very well attended by a high level audience of over 150 international participants. A total of 8 sponsors supported the event and exhibited their respective areas of expertise during the 2-day product showcase. Acquaintances were made and partnerships were founded during the ample networking opportunities afforded by lunch at the pool side and an evening networking cocktail function sponsored by the new online portal www.ipad-africa.com
iPAD Angola Programme highlights include the opening of the conference with a speech delivered by The Honourable Kiala Gabriel, Secretary of State for Industry as well as strategic interventions on behalf of both John Rocha, Senior Project Manager from the NEPAD Business Foundation and The Honourable Luis da Silva, Secretary of State for Water.
We sincerely hope that you will be able to join us next year in May 2011 for the 3rd annual iPAD Angola and its partner in electricity and energy development, iPAD Power Industry Forum for Southern Africa as we continue to define prime investment opportunities in important infrastructure verticals.
A special thank you to our sponsors:

Angola is expected to be among the fastest growing African economies in 2010, with a GDP growth rate of 9%.
Although 2009 was a difficult year, a strong rebound is expected, which will be driven by rising oil output and higher oil prices. Oil output is likely to average 1.9 million barrels per day (mbpd) in 2010, compared to 1.8mbpd in 2009. Non-oil growth will benefit from rising government spending resulting from the improvement in the fiscal accounts. Infrastructure spending and agriculture will be key drivers of non-oil growth (the non-oil sector represents 40% of GDP).
