The Tourism Investment Forum Africa is set to return in 2025 with renewed backing from Brand South Africa, marking the third consecutive year of partnership between the two entities. The continued support signals a shared commitment to placing South Africa and the wider continent firmly on the map as a competitive and attractive space for tourism investment. This year’s edition of the forum will be held in the City of uMhlathuze in KwaZulu-Natal, a growing hub with expanding infrastructure and untapped potential for tourism-led growth.

The forum’s theme, “Tourism and Infrastructure Investment: Driving Economic Transformation and Enhancing Community Well-Being,” reflects its focus on turning investment into real impact. From eco-tourism and heritage sites to logistics and hospitality, TIFA aims to draw investors to projects that uplift communities and foster sustainable development. With Brand South Africa on board once again, the message is clear: this is about more than just promoting destinations—it’s about building a future where tourism works for everyone. To further unpack we are joined on the line by Miller Matola, Chief Executive Officer of Millvest Advisory and convener of the Tourism Investment Forum Africa (TIFA).
