Facilitating Access to Finance: Networking & Curated Engagements
Where Deals Begin
The Global Off-Grid Solar Forum & Expo (GOGSFE) brings together the people shaping the future of energy access in Africa, from companies scaling solar solutions to the investors and funders backing them. Whether you are raising capital or looking to deploy it, GOGSFE 2026 offers dedicated matchmaking opportunities designed to help you make the right connections, efficiently and with purpose.
Meet the Investors Session
Join a pool of equity, grant, and debt investors for high table networking with GOGSFE attendees. This free flowing, unstructured session is designed to make it easy for companies to find and connect with you, without formal pre-matching.
Company & Investor Roundtables
A closed door session built for local companies and investors to engage directly. With over 100 companies and over 50 investors expected, this roundtable format creates space for candid conversations on fundraising and investment barriers, alongside company pitches.
Prepare Ahead with the GOGLA Virtual Pitchbook
Get a head start on deal origination through the GOGLA Virtual Pitchbook, an always available online platform featuring a curated list of off-grid solar companies actively seeking investment. Updated quarterly, the platform gives you direct access to vetted, high potential opportunities in the sector, many of which will also be present at the forum.
Who You Will Meet
GOGSFE convenes a wide network of stakeholders across the off-grid solar value chain, including equity, grant, and debt investors, local and international companies, limited partners, and philanthropic funders. See the full agenda and participant mix here.
