Client Profile

Siemens in Africa

Siemens aims at playing a constructive role in Africa’s success story. As the continent grows, we will strengthen our ability to further enhance the well-being of our employees and the society as a whole.

Since Siemens first set foot on the continent over a century and a half ago, our relationship with Africa has been characterized by growth. Nowhere is this more visible that in the opening of local and regional offices, branches and facilities; in the number of people we employ, in the value of our company assets; in the various projects that we have completed; and in the substantial contribution we continue to make to the development of the region.

As a leading global engineering company, Siemens provides innovative solutions to help tackle Africa’s major challenges, across the key sectors of industry, energy and healthcare:
