President Cyril Ramaphosa SAIC Keynote Address

President Cyril Ramaphosa delivers a keynote address at the 6th South African Investment Conference in Sandton, South Africa. The South Africa Investment Conference (SAIC) is the country's flagship platform to position South Africa as a credible, competitive and forward-looking investment destination in a rapidly changing global economy. Anchored in the theme Invest – Partner – Prosper, the Conference is a platform that brings government, global investors, development finance institutions, and strategic partners together to demonstrate how South Africa is translating reform into opportunity, partnership into scale, and investment into sustainable growth. SAIC is more than a showcase, it is a disciplined investment platform that highlights reform delivery, unlocking of high-impact value chains, and reinforcing South Africa's role as a trusted hub for investment into the continent. The Conference is designed as a coherent investment narrative, not a collection of standalone sessions. Its structure follows a clear and intentional thread that moves from reform credibility to investor confidence, to deployable opportunities, and finally to global partnerships and sustained follow-through. This sequencing ensures that the Conference speaks credibly to international investors while remaining grounded in South Africa's domestic reform and development priorities. Hosted at the Sandton Convention Centre, the event has attracted approximately 1 250 delegates from the global and domestic investor community, development finance institutions, strategic partners, the diplomatic corps, private capital and the South African Government.
