About The Forum

Africa's Definitive Gathering for Private Wealth Principals

The Capital & Legacy Forum is Africa's definitive gathering for private wealth principals. Whether you are a steward of a formalised family office or simply take your capital seriously, this is a space for the builders, stewards, and next-generation leaders navigating the complexity of significant wealth in a rapidly shifting world.

Hosted by API Events – Africa's leading pan-continental B2B events platform – the Forum moves beyond transactions to explore the strategy, structures, and mindset behind lasting financial legacies.

In an era of rapid economic transformation across the continent, East Africa's most influential wealth principals are confronting shared challenges – currency volatility, cross-border structuring, succession planning, impact investing, and the professionalisation of family capital. The Capital & Legacy Forum creates a trusted environment in which these conversations can happen openly, among people who understand the stakes.

Why Participate

Benefits of Attending

01

Peer-to-Peer Privacy

This is not a mass-market conference. We curate an environment of absolute discretion where UHNW individuals and Principals can speak candidly with their true peers about the 'unspoken' challenges of wealth, from family constitutions to conflict.

02

Modern Wealth Intelligence

The 2026 investment landscape is defined by the collision of human wisdom and AI efficiency. We offer deep-dive sessions on how family offices are integrating advanced technology without compromising the 'human touch' that defines their values.

03

Direct Access to 'Alternative' Alpha

As traditional markets see tighter spreads, the 'alpha' is in alternatives. Attendees gain exclusive insights into the African real estate, private debt, and renewable energy projects that typically don't reach the open market.

04

Global Mobility & Local Roots

For the modern African family, wealth is global, but the heart (and the growth) is local. We provide the structural, tax, and legal expertise needed to manage assets across jurisdictions while keeping capital productive within African borders.

05

The 'API Advantage'

Leverage the reach of Africa's premier thought-leadership platform. We bring the same rigor and high-touch networking to Private Wealth that we have brought to the African Institutional property sector over the past 15 years.
