The Africa Valuation Conference is a one-of-its-kind mega-event of the valuation industry in Africa. The international conference attracts valuers and surveyors across the African continent and the world to its expert sessions on property valuation practices and standards, the latest trends in valuation, and sessions on property and finance industries.

The Africa Valuation Conference 2025 is scheduled for 1 – 3 April 2025. This will be the go-to event for valuation professionals who want to gain insights into the valuation industry and network with property professionals from Africa and other parts of the world.
In a recent podcast, Mashilo Pitjeng, the Director of ACRE gave an exclusive preview of the Africa Valuation Conference 2025, discussing its core vision, agenda, and the future of property valuation in Africa. Mashilo Pitjeng is a South African professional valuer, asset manager, and executive director of BLK Asset Solutions. He occasionally delves into academia as a part-time lecturer and is often invited as a guest speaker at international conferences. His extensive experience in the valuation industry has played a key role in shaping the vision of the Africa Valuation Conference. According to Mashilo Pitjeng, the valuation industry urgently needs avenues to boost networking and coordination between valuation professionals operating within a specific country, companies that work between countries, and multinational companies setting up their bases in Africa. A platform like the Africa Valuation Conference can transform the valuation industry by expanding its focus from a regional to a global scale. The conference is meant for valuers, property professionals, PropTech innovators, and investors who want to tap into the latest business opportunities in Africa, gain market insights, participate in knowledge-building, and showcase their talents and innovations in the valuation field.
The 3-day conference will feature a host of sessions and activities highlighting the contemporary trends of the valuation industry.

For the session on valuation technology, the Chairperson of PropTech Africa will take center stage. The first session of Day 2 will be dedicated to women in the valuation industry highlighting the importance given to gender diversity and equal representation in the conference. The third day offers a unique opportunity for practice or gaining real experience through exclusive masterclasses or site visits. Participants can choose specialized masterclasses that provide deep dive into critical topics like valuation technology, emphasizing practical, hands-on learning. The conference will also feature an exhibition of the top innovations and products in the field of valuation, especially valuation technology.
