Sam Fongho Takes Kigali: Cameroonian Professionals Set to Connect at Africa CEO Forum 2026

As Africa’s business elite gather in Rwanda, the London-based Midas Property Auctions founder is pushing conversations around real estate, diaspora investment, and meaningful Cameroonian networking.

Kigali is buzzing this week — and not just because Africa’s biggest business minds are in town.

The summit is taking place in Kigali on 14 and 15 May 2026, with the official forum describing it as Africa’s leading annual private-sector gathering, bringing thousands of participants from across the continent and beyond.

And right in the middle of that energy is London-based Cameroonian entrepreneur Sam Fongho, founder and Business Development Director of Midas Property Auctions.
