The Mining Commission has invited mining companies, suppliers, investors and other stakeholders to participate in the fifth Local Content Compliance Forum (LCCF 2026), saying the event will help expand business opportunities and strengthen local participation in Tanzania's mining industry.
The three-day forum will be held from July 22 to 24, 2026, at Malaika Beach Resort in Mwanza, bringing together key players across the mining value chain to discuss local content implementation, investment opportunities and industry development.
Mining Commission Executive Secretary Eng. Ramadhani M. Lwamo said the forum reflects the government's commitment to ensuring Tanzanians benefit more from the country's mineral wealth through stronger implementation of local content policies.
"LCCF 2026 is more than a conference. It is a strategic platform that connects government institutions, mining companies, local suppliers and industry experts to discuss practical ways of increasing Tanzanian participation in the mining sector," he said in an interview.
He urged mining companies, mine service providers, mineral dealers, financial institutions, development partners, entrepreneurs and members of the public to attend the event, saying it would provide opportunities to build partnerships, exchange knowledge and identify new business prospects.
According to Eng. Lwamo, the forum will feature keynote speeches, panel discussions, technical sessions and exhibitions focusing on local content compliance, procurement opportunities, policy developments, skills development and investment.
He said participants would gain insights into emerging industry trends, regulatory changes and best practices while engaging directly with policymakers, regulators and leading mining companies.
The event will also provide local businesses with a platform to showcase their products and services, strengthen commercial partnerships and improve their competitiveness in supplying goods and services to the mining sector.
The Mining Commission has encouraged interested participants to register through the online portal ahead of the forum, expressing confidence that the event will contribute to expanding local participation, promoting innovation and unlocking new business and investment opportunities in Tanzania's mining industry.
