The summit will bring together public and private sector leaders to focus on how to move infrastructure from priority to implementation across Africa.
Discussions in the summit will centre on infrastructure-led growth, with a focus on regional corridors, industrialization, capital mobilization, and alignment of regulatory and policy frameworks across markets.
Speakers of the event will include: President William Ruto, Africa Finance Corporation President Samaila Zubairu, Dangote Group Chairman Aliko Dangote, and Commissioner for Infrastructure, Energy, and Digitization in the African Union Lerato Mataboge.
This comes just a month after President Museveni’s last visit to Kenya.
The Ugandan Head of State was in Kisumu County on March 21 to witness the groundbreaking of Phase 2C of the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR).
Museveni and President Ruto presided over the groundbreaking of the SGR extension at Kibos.
The railway line is being extended from Naivasha to the Ugandan border, passing through Kisumu.
In July 2025, Museveni made a two-day official visit to Kenya to strengthen diplomatic and economic ties between Uganda and Kenya.
He was received at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) by Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi, alongside other senior government officials.
The Ugandan President then held bilateral talks with President Ruto at State House, Nairobi, before the two leaders addressed a joint press briefing.
