Stanbic Bank Zambia is playing a key role in conversations shaping Africa’s energy future after coming on board as the Platinum Sponsor of the Energy Forum for Africa Conference 2026, taking place at the Mulungushi International Conference Centre in Lusaka.

Held under the theme “Driving a Borderless Energy Future for Africa,” the conference brings together key stakeholders from the energy sector, government, finance, business and development community to discuss investment, innovation and regional cooperation in Africa’s energy sector.

Stanbic’s support comes at a critical time when Africa continues to explore ways of expanding access to reliable, affordable and sustainable energy while unlocking opportunities for economic growth and industrial development.

The conference is providing a platform for stakeholders to explore how finance, partnerships and innovation can help turn Africa’s energy potential into tangible opportunities.

For Stanbic, the conversation goes beyond energy — it is about supporting the infrastructure, businesses and investments that can contribute to Africa’s economic transformation.

With a focus on a borderless energy future, discussions are also expected to highlight the importance of regional cooperation, cross-border power projects and stronger connections between African energy markets.

As Platinum Sponsor, Stanbic is helping to power a conversation that could shape how Africa produces, finances and accesses energy in the years ahead.
