A Word from the Chairman
AFRICON 2026 is more than just a symposium — it is a powerful platform for driving real change within the micro and small industries (MSIs) of Tanzania, India, and beyond. As we gather in Dar es Salaam from May 25–27, we aim to spark meaningful partnerships, fuel innovation, and unlock the immense potential of entrepreneurs across borders.
