Speak with our team What is West Africa Integrity Week?
A coordinated regional campaign connecting AIMUP Côte d’Ivoire in Abidjan on 25 February, AIMUP Ghana in Accra on 2 March, and AIMUP Nigeria in Lagos on 4 March 2027. Each stop focuses on its market’s engineering priorities, connecting relevant providers with operators, asset owners, EPC contractors and technical leaders.
Can we participate in just one conference?
Yes. You can focus on one country or explore a regional presence across all three. Contact the team with your priority markets to discuss exhibition participation, technical contributions or partnership options.
Who is the regional partnership designed for?
Product manufacturers, solution providers and specialist service companies in inspection and NDT, corrosion protection, rotating equipment, valves and instrumentation, subsea services, production chemicals, well intervention, integrity software, fabrication, commissioning and field support.
What can we include in a partnership enquiry?
Tell us about your capabilities, target markets and preferred involvement: exhibition, technical contribution or regional partnership. The team can then discuss suitable opportunities and confirm availability, entitlements and investment in a proposal.
How do facilitated meetings work?
Introductions are organised around relevant technical interests and participant availability. They provide an opportunity to clarify requirements, understand qualification expectations and agree appropriate follow-up. Specific meetings and commercial outcomes are not guaranteed.
