Partners we are privileged to work with:
CWC has welcomed the support of the following companies as speakers and sponsors at our events:
Corporate Responsibility CWC does not consider corporate responsibility as a mere philanthropic gesture or add-on. It is part of our core business. We print materials and banners locally, use local security and transport companies, software companies, cleaners, catering, local stand builders and entertainment. CWC funds the Technical Sessions at the Ghana Summit and with the support of Halliburton at Nigeria Oil & Gas so that engineers, smaller firms and students can attend free of charge. CWC takes its responsibility towards the environment very seriously. We offset the carbon emissions for staff air travel to and from our events and courses.
Supporting local causes We donate money to local charities in countries where we work. We have supported Drifting Angels Orphanage in Ghana. In 2009 we funded the construction of new washrooms and toilet facilities for the orphanage. CWC continues to make donations to help build facilities at the orphanage and a sustainable future.

Tackling key issues In-country, our work is carried out in consultation with the key stakeholders including the Government Ministries, internationals investors, NGO’s and industry experts. For example, in Nigeria, we host a special session on the Niger Delta to engage all stakeholders to discuss the prevalent issues. We also work with governments and UNCTAD in researching and holding events on sustainable development and local content.
