The two-day conference, held from 07 to 08 November 2024 at The Ranch Hotel, brought together key stakeholders from both the private and public sectors to explore and promote investment opportunities in Limpopo.
“We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the business sector and industry leaders who have partnered with us to uplift our province.”
“These pledges are an important step in transforming Limpopo’s economic landscape and we are confident that this partnership will bring substantial benefits to the people of Limpopo who need access to enhanced services and opportunities,” said Premier Dr Ramathuba.
The pledged investments are aimed at fueling priority areas for Limpopo’s development, including green energy initiatives, critical infrastructure projects, and catalytic ventures that will stimulate industrial growth and support the establishment of industrial parks.
These projects are expected to create numerous jobs, ranging from short-term positions to full-time employment opportunities, significantly impacting local communities.
Implementation of projects funded by these pledges will commence from November 2024 and continue through to October 2025.
