The Katanga Business Meeting (KBM), a renowned business fair, kicked off its fourth edition in Kolwezi, Lualaba province. This year marks a first for this city which hosts this unmissable event.
The KBM offers a meeting and exchange platform for small, medium and large businesses. It promotes business development and encourages corporate social responsibility. Costas Musunka, general director of MUSAL, the initiator of the show, underlines the importance of creating a barometer and a networking network in order to allow different industries to reposition themselves and evolve in a complex economic context.
In addition to the mining sector, tourism and agriculture also occupy a prominent place during this edition. These sectors are seen as levers that can help resolve several problems facing the country. Conferences and exhibitors specializing in these fields will therefore have a central place at the show.
This year, the KBM plans to welcome 100 exhibitors from various sectors of activity. The show thus offers economic operators the opportunity to establish business relationships and expand their activities.
The Katanga Business Meeting is much more than just a trade show. This is a strategic meeting that promotes exchanges, collaboration and reflection on the country’s economic issues. Through its initiatives, this show helps to boost the local economy and create an environment conducive to business development.
In conclusion, the Katanga Business Meeting represents a unique opportunity for businesses in the region to make themselves known, establish partnerships and stimulate their growth. Thanks to its multi-sector dimension and its commitment to corporate social responsibility, the show plays a major role in the economic development of Lualaba and the Democratic Republic of Congo as a whole.
