Bokang D. Thitoyamore, CEO of Naledi Mining Services Company, has been confirmed as a speaker at the upcoming African Mining Week (AMW) 2026 conference, taking place from October 14-16 in Cape Town.

Thitoyamore will feature in the Strengthening Local Content in Africa's Mining Supply Chain panel, exploring how mining companies can build strong partnerships with local businesses and integrate local content into operations. For Naledi Mining Services, AMW 2026 provides an ideal platform to highlight the company's efforts to advance Botswana's national agenda of expanding local participation, enhancing technical capacity and diversifying the economy beyond diamonds.

His participation comes as Botswana advances policy that aims to accelerate mining development and local content integration. Incoming Mines and Minerals Regulations are at the forefront of this effort, mandating robust local participation and in-country beneficiation. With exploration expanding across approximately 70% of the country's unexplored territory, new mine developments will demand extensive engineering capacity, mine development expertise, equipment management and project delivery capabilities.

To meet this demand, Naledi Mining Services is scaling its training initiatives through the Naledi Mining Talent Bank, designed to equip Botswana's next-generation of mining workers and entrepreneurs. The company is also positioning itself to export skilled labor regionally. In July 2026, Naledi signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Botswana's Ministry of Labor and Home Affairs, facilitating skills transfer across the mining sector.

Beyond capacity building, Naledi is expanding its service capabilities as an EPC provider for large-scale mining operations across Southern Africa. A wholly owned subsidiary of Debswana Diamond Company, Naledi's flagship asset is the Jwaneng Cut 9 Project - Botswana's largest mining contract - spanning mine development, production, engineering, and equipment maintenance.

At AMW 2026, Thitoyamore is expected to share insights into how the company plans to expand both its operations and technical capabilities. Convening stakeholders from across the entire mining value chain, the event is held under the theme Mining the Future: Unearthing Africa's Full Mineral Value.
