The Makutano Mining
podcast.

The challenge is no longer production alone, but the capture of value. The official Makutano Mining podcast extends the strategic dialogue beyond the summit. We give a voice to those who are building the new energy economy and securing Kinshasa's lasting place on the global economic agenda.

The stakes

Value capture,
mining sovereignty.
