About the Conference
East Africa is witnessing significant transport and infrastructure development, driven by investments in railway modernization, road networks, port expansion and regional connectivity. Tanzania is emerging as a strategic logistics hub, supported by the development of the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR), modernization of existing rail networks, improvements to the Port of Dar es Salaam and investments in integrated transport corridors. Across the region, projects in Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda and other neighbouring markets are creating opportunities for infrastructure investment, public-private partnerships and cross-border trade.
With a growing emphasis on sustainable mobility, digital transformation and efficient logistics, regional governments and private-sector stakeholders are working to develop resilient transport networks that reduce transit times, improve trade flows and support economic growth.
Bricsa Consulting brings back the 13th Edition East Africa Transport & Infrastructure 2027, scheduled for 18th - 19th October 2027 in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. This exclusive, two-day conference will bring together senior government officials, policymakers, transport authorities, railway operators, infrastructure developers, investors and international industry leaders to explore key projects, investment opportunities and innovative solutions shaping the future of transport across East Africa.
The conference will facilitate strategic discussions, knowledge exchange and senior-level networking, fostering collaboration between public- and private-sector stakeholders to advance regional connectivity and sustainable infrastructure development.
