The Lesotho Trade & Investment Forum 2026 will bring together senior government representatives, investors, business leaders, financial institutions and international partners for a day focused on the growing trade and investment opportunities in the Kingdom of Lesotho.
Taking place at the prestigious Institute of Directors in London, the Forum is being held in partnership with the Westminster Africa Business Association (WABA) and will provide a platform for direct engagement between Lesotho and the UK and international business community.
Discover the opportunities in Lesotho
Known as the “Kingdom in the Sky,” Lesotho offers opportunities across a diverse range of sectors. The Forum will highlight areas including investment and finance, renewable energy, mining and natural resources, infrastructure, tourism and hospitality, healthcare, education, agriculture, manufacturing and international trade.
Delegates will have the opportunity to hear directly from senior representatives and industry experts about the investment environment, current projects and opportunities for businesses seeking to enter or expand within the Lesotho market.
The programme will also provide valuable opportunities for business-to-government and business-to-business networking, helping investors and companies establish the relationships needed to turn opportunities into practical partnerships.
Building long-term UK–Lesotho partnerships
Through its partnership with the Forum, WABA will bring its network of businesses, investors, policymakers and Africa-focused organisations together with representatives from Lesotho, supporting the development of stronger commercial relationships and encouraging greater two-way trade and investment.
Whether you are an investor seeking new opportunities, a UK company considering the Lesotho market, an organisation looking for local partners, or a business already active in Southern Africa, the Forum offers an excellent opportunity to connect, learn and explore what Lesotho has to offer.
