Investors, thought leaders, industry stakeholders, policymakers, are to headline discussions as GIDI Real Estate Investment Limited hosts an Intra-Africa Realtors’ Conference (GIDI IARC 3.0) in the East African cities of Nairobi and Mombasa, Kenya.
The five-day conference, already scheduled for October 27 to November 2, 2025, will chart a new course for the continent’s real estate sector.
This year’s edition is anchored on the duality of Africa’s real estate, focusing on building a more connected and prosperous Africa’s real estate ecosystem through cross-border collaboration, integrated value chains, and innovative solutions to the continent’s housing deficit.
Africa’s real estate market, projected to approach $15 trillion by 2025, stands at the intersection of unprecedented opportunity and critical housing challenges.
With rapid urbanization, a youthful population surge, and rising demand for sustainable development, the sector faces both extraordinary potential and deep structural constraints.
Consistent with its theme, ‘Building Africa: Integrating Real Estate Value Chains for Continental Prosperity,” the conference seeks to foster dialogue, shape actionable strategies, and create tangible partnerships that can accelerate sustainable and affordable housing across the continent.
According to the organisers, the initiative was conceived as a strategic platform to unite the fragmented African real estate landscape, adding that GIDI IARC was created to strengthen intra-African collaboration and drive coordinated actions that can help tackle Africa’s housing deficit at scale.
