President Hakainde Hichilema has called on investors to take advantage of Zambia’s political stability as they explore investment opportunities in the country.
Speaking during the official opening of the inaugural Invest in Zambia Conference 2025 in Lusaka, President Hichilema has emphasized the urgent need for capital in Zambia’s economy. He has appealed to investors to provide priced capital, noting that Africa has long borne the burden of expensive financing.
Meanwhile, the United Kingdom’s Trade Envoy to Zambia, Calvin Bailey, has announced that the British government is mobilizing over £2.5 billion in sustainable private sector investment.
This initiative aims to foster innovation in clean energy and support infrastructure development, including the grid interconnection between countries in the Southern African Power Pool.
