Activation
Friday, 9 October 2026
Villiers Town Hall · 09:00–15:00 SAST (tentative)
The activation starts a period of sessions, workshops and targeted conversations across Mafube. These will help participants bring local business and development priorities into focus before the working summit.
It is an important part of the Mafube Summit programme, but it is not the main event.
