Innovate UK, which is part of the UK Research and Innovation, has organized a Virtual Marketplace for renewable energy players to discuss investment opportunities in the sector.

The initiative will provide a platform for Malawian companies in the renewable energy sector to participate in Webinars and conduct one on one virtual meetings with potential investors for possible business opportunities.

Malawi investment and Trade Centre (MITC) is mobilizing participation of Malawian companies to this virtual marketplace. MITC Public Relations Manager, Deliby Chimbalu says this is a great opportunity for Malawi to tap into the resources available and build business relationships internationally.

‘The initial plan was to have the Innovate UK visit Malawi in July this year. But because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the visit has been postponed hence the virtual market place’.
The virtual market place is expected to commence on 1st June and end on 26th of June 2020. Interested companies are requested to register by Friday the 29th of May 2020 via https://energy-catalyst-round-8.b2match.io/.

MITC is working with the Malawi-UK Business Group in identifying investors and partners for the improvement of trade and investment between Malawi and the UK.

Those that register should notify MITC through the Investment Promotion Manager, Modie Chanza via This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
