NC Engineering Meets Africa's Infrastructure Gap
The African Development Bank estimates a $170 billion annual infrastructure financing gap — updated from the widely-cited $108B to reflect 2024-2025 investment data. AfDEC's Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) program positions NC's engineering firms to capture a meaningful share of this opportunity through formal project pipeline access and development finance partnerships.

Grid development, solar farms, and utility-scale storage — AfDEC connects NC EPC firms to African energy ministry RFPs.
Transport & Logistics
Road, rail, port, and cold chain logistics development across priority African corridors.
Urban Development
Affordable housing, commercial real estate, and smart city infrastructure in high-growth urban corridors.
Project Finance
AfDB, IFC, and DFC project finance structuring — AfDEC navigates development bank pipelines for NC contractors.
