‘The role of technology and skills development in unlocking Africa’s potential’

• How can technology help Africa leapfrog into the future?
• The role and value of geological data in creating opportunities and attracting investment in Africa
• Working with governments on mapping projects
• Encouraging talent, diversity and skills development in African mining: what does the industry need to do to ensure its long-term success?
• Can mining play a role in making Africa an exporter of surplus skills rather than a loser of scarce/critical skills?
• What new skill sets are needed now and in the future and at what levels – mining operations, supervision, management?
• What new STEM skills and experience will be needed?
• What about “softer skills” relating to environmental and social performance?
• How can mining companies attract more young people and women into the sector and make mining attractive as an industry again?
