TheNewCitiesSummit.

The New Cities Summit is not a typical conference. It’s where projects launch, scale, and become reality.

After two landmark Summits in Kigali (2023) and Nairobi (2025), the 2026 edition brings the global ecosystem to Johannesburg, convening the people actually building cities: governments, developers, investors, infrastructure providers, founders, and operators.

Across two days, conversations focus on what matters most: capital, infrastructure, and governance, with ample time for networking, sightseeing, and exploring the magic of Waterfall City.

This is an action-oriented Summit designed to unlock investment, accelerate development, and push projects from concept to execution.

Expect deal rooms, project pitches, curated networking, and working sessions built for real outcomes, not just ideas.

Whether you’re raising capital, deploying infrastructure, or launching a new city project, this is where you meet the partners to make it happen.
