African Utility Week, Spintelligent’s flagship energy event of the last 17 years, was the joint winner in the Best Trade Exhibition 6001-12000m2 category, sharing the honours with the World Travel Market. Agritech Expo Zambia won two awards for Best Trade and Consumer Exhibition 12000+m2 and for Distinction in Social Responsibility Award. The African Real Estate and Infrastructure Summit, which was a launch event for the company in 2016, won the Best Confex category. The DRC Mining Week was also a finalist in the Social Responsibility category.

“It was a clean sweep for Spintelligent and I could not be prouder of our teams,” says Spintelligent MD, David Ashdown. “We work incredibly hard to produce successful, relevant, and innovative events for our clients in exciting industries such as energy, agriculture, and mining. To also get recognition from our peers in this competitive expo industry is immensely rewarding as it inspires us to work even harder and to take things up a notch every year.”

Ashdown adds, “The AAXO ROAR Awards honoured both long-standing events such as African Utility Week, to a more recent project such as Agritech Expo as well as a launch show, African Real Estate and Infrastructure Summit, which is part of our new property portfolio. It shows that we are still on the right track, while also receiving the nod of approval for our newer initiatives.”
