Call for Zambian Entrepreneurs: Limited Discounted Seats Open for the Inaugural Corridor Economy Forum
As Zambia positions itself at the heart of regional trade, industrialisation, and investment flows, a new platform is emerging to connect capital, policy, and enterprise in practical and catalytic ways. Chapes Investments Company Limited, organisers and convenors of The Corridor Economy Forum (TCEF), are inviting Zambian-based entrepreneurs and companies to register and participate in the inaugural Corridor Economy Forum, taking place this May in Lusaka.
This landmark gathering is designed to unlock value across Zambia’s corridor economy—bringing together businesses, investors, policymakers, financiers, and development partners to accelerate industrial growth, trade competitiveness, and investment readiness.
Who Should Apply?
This opportunity is open to Zambian entrepreneurs and companies that:
- Have been operational for three (3) years or more
- Possess audited financial statements
- Operate within key corridor economy sectors, including (but not limited to):
- Agriculture & agro-processing
- Mining & minerals value chains
- Manufacturing & industrial services
- Logistics, transport & trade facilitation
- Energy, infrastructure & utilities
- Financial services, fintech & SME support services
To ensure meaningful engagement and high-quality outcomes, all applications will undergo a vetting and selection process.
What’s on Offer?
In recognition of the critical role local enterprises play in driving Zambia’s economic transformation, TCEF has allocated a limited number of 100 discounted seats exclusively for vetted Zambian entrepreneurs.
Selected participants will benefit from:
- Targeted matchmaking with investors, DFIs, corporates, and policymakers
- Opportunities for strategic partnerships and joint ventures
- Exposure to de-risked financing pathways, including guarantees, blended finance, and patient capital
- Insight into corridor-based investment planning, infrastructure pipelines, and export-led growth opportunities
- Direct access to decision-makers shaping Zambia’s industrial and trade agenda
This is not a general conference—it is a deal-oriented, outcomes-driven platform designed to move enterprises from visibility to bankability.
Why the Corridor Economy Forum?
Zambia’s growth story is increasingly tied to its economic corridors—linking production zones to processing hubs, logistics networks, and regional and global markets. The Corridor Economy Forum is built to support businesses that are ready to scale, integrate into value chains, and attract long-term capital.
For entrepreneurs, TCEF offers a rare opportunity to sit at the same table as capital providers, policymakers, and infrastructure enablers, and to position their businesses within national and regional growth strategies.
