Although the development of the affordable housing sector has been on the nation’s agenda for a few years in South Africa, its development has been stalled due to insufficient infrastructure and lack of supporting services and financial backing resulting in a backlog of more than 2.3 million affordable and social houses in the country.

The conference, hosted by IQPC – in partnership with Gauteng Partnership Fund and Centre for Affordable Housing Finance in Africa - will be a unique opportunity for contractors, consultants and suppliers to meet with Government departments – national, provincial and municipal departments – human settlement, public works and land and rural development, public and private property developers from South Africa looking to discuss industry challenges at a deal level and network with industry stakeholders.

The expert speaker panel includes:

• Louisa Hetisani, Manager (NCR) will deliver a keynote address on behalf of Nomsa Motshegare, Chief Executive Officer
• Sharon Trail, Chair of Investment Committee (SHRA) will present on the subject of rental in affordable housing
• Renney Plit, CEO and Chairman (AFHCO) will present on Inner City Affordable Housing
• Boni Muvevi, Chief Executive Officer, Gauteng Partnership Fund (GPF)
• Dr. Simphiwe Madikizela, Policy and Research Division General Manager

Affordable Housing Summit will take place on 26 – 28 August 2014 in Crowne Plaza – The Rosebank, Johannesburg, South Africa. Find the full programme, speaker list and registration form at www.affordablehousingsa.com/news, call +27 11 593 2267 or email enquiry@iqpc.co.za.
