About EAPI 2026

East Africa’s premier real estate and hospitality investment gathering returned bigger and more dynamic than ever for its 13th edition, held at the Radisson Blu, Nairobi.

As the region’s real estate sector embarks on its “Institutional Era”, the two days of this year’s summit were defined by energetic discussion, high-quality content, deal-making, networking, and future-focused insights.

A healthy increase in numbers from last year (we welcomed over 420 delegates from 260 companies and 25 countries) is an encouraging indicator of the continued demand for the event and the growing optimism surrounding East Africa’s real estate future.

In addition to expert panel discussions, fireside chats, and presentations, the event featured inclusive roundtable discussions and a dedicated interview booth for participants to share their perspectives on the region’s vibrant property landscape. This in line with API Events’ goal of improving the event year-on-year and delivering optimal ROI for attendees.

The EAPI Summit remains the only East African international real estate gathering to connect investors, developers, global hotel brands, and professional investors across the value chain. This year’s theme of “Re-newed Momentum” was on full display, reflected in the numbers and statistics in this report.

We wish to extend a sincere thanks to all who attended – from our valued sponsors and partners, to our wonderful speakers and other attendees from across the public and private sectors – for making this year’s event an undisputed success.

The EAPI Summit was an excellent forum for property developers to exchange ideas, challenge conventional thinking, and engage with the future direction of the real estate sector. It brought together a strong mix of developers, investors, consultants, asset managers, and industry leaders, creating meaningful conversations around market growth, professional standards, and long-term value creation.

For developers like us, the conference was especially valuable in highlighting the importance of operational excellence, thoughtful asset management, and adapting to changing market expectations. Overall, it was a well-curated and highly relevant event that reinforced the importance of collaboration and innovation in shaping the next phase of property development in the region.

EAPI 2026 brought new faces and a shift of focus towards the institutionalisation of real estate in East Africa. Coming off the back of the recent listing of the ALP USD-denominated REIT, there was a good sense of momentum at the event. CBRE Excellerate and Turner & Townsend were delighted to host the cocktail event. I left EAPI with a slightly larger book of contacts and some interesting leads to pursue. Thank you to the organisers.
