Projects & Construction With ongoing and upcoming projects, construction is the largest sector in Africa. Infrastructure is a key focus for African countries developing at a rapid rate, with major projects spread over 43 of Africa’s 54 countries.
Whether working with governments, international contractors, investors or consultants on privately or publicly procured projects, we have the critical mass, resources and depth of experience to handle complex infrastructure and construction projects, transactions or disputes across the continent. With significant capabilities in both the litigious and non-contentious aspects of construction work, we offer clients a rounded perspective – whether at the front end of developments or on the occasions when disputes occur. Our infrastructure sector specialism includes construction development (commercial property, hospitality, industrial and retail), energy (power & utilities, oil & gas, natural resources and renewables), social (education, healthcare, housing and regeneration) and transport (airports, ports, rail and road).
