CIPS Africa is committed to representing the whole of Africa and therefore will be hosting the CIPS Pan African Conference outside of South Africa for the foreseeable future. In 2013 the event will be held in Ghana, on  21-22 May 2013. 

CIPS Africa will also be hosting within South Africa the longstanding CIPS Annual Dinner and Awards, launching the State Owned Enterprise Procurement Forum (SOEPF) new public procurement awards branded as All About Public Procurement Awards (AAPP Awards) on the 7th of June 2013 at the Emperors Palace, Johannesburg
