## Summary

The Department for Business & Trade is leading a contracting process titled "DBT Requirement for Africa Mining Indaba 2026," which falls under the industry category of event services. This contract is centred on the Africa Mining Indaba event, scheduled to be held from 9th to 12th February 2026 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre in South Africa. Notably, a direct award procurement method has been utilised due to the unique position of Hyve Events S.A. Limited, who holds exclusive rights to manage the event. This procurement process is in the Contract Amendment stage as of 4th December 2025, signifying potential changes to the original terms of the award.

This tender presents significant opportunities for companies within the event services industry, particularly those capable of delivering large-scale international conferences and exhibitions. Businesses that specialise in mining or have experience working in the African continent could find this event highly beneficial for networking and establishing partnerships. The direct award method indicates that competitive alternatives were not feasible, highlighting the importance of intellectual property or unique content rights in this procurement. Large enterprises with established reputations in event management, similar to Hyve Events, will be well-positioned to compete for similar projects where exclusive rights are pivotal.
