Day 1: ARE Energy Access Investment Summit (12 April 2016)
Thanks to the kind support of ING, ARE is hosting a free-entry one-day Energy Access Investment Summit at ING headquarters to bring together key decision makers as well as institutional and business representatives to develop business strategies. This ARE event aims to discuss market conditions and key policy and financial initiatives on existing and upcoming rural electrification business opportunities in developing and emerging markets.

This is a chance for interested participants to understand where the opportunities lie and how you can take advantage of them, while also creating the appropriate networks to get engaged.

The summit is open to the private sector, financiers, the (inter)national and European public sector representatives, business networks and CSO that would like:

  • to meet ARE members and partners; and
  • to venture or to expand investment and operations in rural electrification and renewable energy markets.

Finally, to celebrate the 10th ARE anniversary a networking reception will take place in the evening.
