In doing so, it has played a key role in representing, advocating and supporting the growth of the continent\u2019s energy sector through facilitating networking opportunities, transactions and partnerships, as well as leading countless policy-making efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Due to its prominent role across the energy value chain, the Chamber is launching its membership offering and is enthusiastic to be offering it to the African and global market. \u201cThe Chamber\u2019s network in CEMAC will gain even more traction with this next phase of our growth. Economic integration and diversification, as well as jobs mobility are some aspects where CEMAC region falls behind compared to other African regions.\u2019<strong>\u2019\u00a0<\/strong>stated Leoncio Amada Nze, President for CEMAC at the African Energy Chamber.<\/p>\n<p>The launch of the Chamber Memberships is encouraged by its position in all facets of the energy industry and its determination to unlock new opportunities that will contribute to greater economic growth and development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have created an environment that allows the energy sector to speak with a single, united and powerful voice when it comes to advocating on behalf of our members, employees, host communities, investors, local companies and international companies,\u201d said NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman of the African Energy Chamber. \u2018\u2019That in coming together and working together, we will continue to foster an environment ripe with opportunities and job growth around Africa. Membership is a key step when it comes to forging that path to build a better energy sector.\u201d added Ayuk<\/p>\n<p>The Chamber has enjoyed great success in bringing together businesses, industry leaders and decision makers in addressing Africa\u2019s energy challenges and is therefore well-positioned to provide access to opportunities and support a thriving community of energy sector leaders. \u00a0We welcome individuals, entrepreneurs and start-ups, local companies, international companies, governments and think-tanks across Africa and beyond, to join us on the journey to building Africa\u2019s sustainable energy future.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019The mandate of the newly established African Energy Chamber in East Africa is to provide access to solid and current information and opinions as well as high level webinar sessions that not only feature a strong platform of local and regional energy experts to the world but also discusses what is relevant to practitioners on the ground,\u2019\u2019 said Elizabeth Rogo, President for East\u00a0 Africa at the African Energy Chamber. \u201cIt is also an avenue for those in East Africa to\u00a0 strengthen their own businesses through the different financial, legal and other specialized programs on offer. Equally important is our strong desire to work very closely with women entrepreneurs and experts to ensure they have equal access and help them succeed,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAngola remains a very dynamic oil and gas industry and we will greatly benefit from uniting together under the umbrella of the Chamber. I am grateful for the support from our existing partners on the ground and looking forward to developing and strengthening the network,\u201d declared Sergio Pugliese, President of the African Energy Chamber, Angola. \u201cWe have a lot of work ahead of us to come back stronger than ever. Above all, my priority is to continue promoting jobs, local content and attracting investors. I encourage every company, individual or think tank to join the Chamber at this critical junction to be a part of the journey.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Beyond these unprecedent times, battling uncertainty on multiple fronts, the Chamber is determined to improve the current climates and shape Africa\u2019s energy future while preparing its members for market rebound.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the past few years, the African Energy Chamber has been instrumental in promoting collaboration within the African energy industry.
