Africa Oil Week (AOW) has been at the forefront of driving meaningful conversations, partnerships, and transactions within the oil, gas, and energy sector for over three decades. One of the core principles that we believe in the new AOW is to ensure the event is run with the industry and regional leadership, for the long term success of our collective goals.
With the support of our Advisory Board, AOW will be uniquely shaped and directed by the insights, expertise, and guidance of the industry itself, composed and shaped by influential leaders and experts across the energy value chain.
The AOW Advisory Board plays a crucial role in determining the direction and focus of the event, ensuring that the conference stays relevant and delivers maximum value to the entire oil and gas community.
Comprised of sector leadership, the advisory board provides strategic input on the program, ensuring that it addresses the most pressing challenges, opportunities, and trends shaping the industry today. This collective expertise ensures that AOW remains an event of substance, grounded in the needs of the region and that of the sector.
The advisory board for AOW 2025 is made up of an impressive roster of individuals who bring a wealth of experience and diverse perspectives. Their guidance is instrumental in shaping the agenda and content, ensuring that the event is relevant, insightful, and of the highest quality. The board's input is what allows AOW to offer delegates the opportunity to hear directly from the people shaping the future of the industry.
