Local Content

4 Days

Managing natural resources for the benefit of host nations and towards building a strong economic basis for future generations must be a priority for the political leadership over the next 10-20 years. Many resource-rich countries accept the importance of Local Content provisions and integrate a range of requirements for local content within the legal and regulatory framework. For those navigating commercial transactions in these regions it is imperative that you have a confident understanding on Local Content laws and requirements and how it may impact your project. This 3 day programme explores the Local Content legislation within your region and implications to the structure and development of a project.

Participants will learn how to develop an effective local content strategy that enhances the effectiveness of your corporate activities, structure a project which complies with the letter and spirit of local content requirements and also confidently complete required documentation and on-going monitoring requirements.

This workshop is also for indigenous companies looking to assess and who require clarity on the conditions that apply
