We are honoured to announce the attendance of H.E. Hakainde Hichilema, President of the Republic of Zambia, who will deliver a keynote address at Mining Indaba 2026.
President Hichilema has placed the revitalisation of Zambia’s mining sector at the centre of his economic agenda, with a focus on building strong foundations through regulatory certainty, transparency, strengthened institutions, and the deployment of game-changing mining technologies to unlock long-term growth.
In recent years, Zambia has prioritised digital licensing systems, improved geological data management, and modernised regulatory frameworks designed to reduce friction for investors while reinforcing effective state oversight.
Mining Indaba provides a platform for direct dialogue between African governments and the global mining and investment community. President Hichilema’s participation emphasizes Zambia’s commitment to collaboration with investors, development partners, and multilateral institutions on the practical steps required to deliver sustainable growth, value addition, and long-term resilience in the mining sector.
Don’t miss the insights into Zambia’s mining future and its significant progress under his leadership.
