BASCON was originally conceived as a concept by Ansawise Investment Holdings (AIH) and its partners as a result of various fact finding missions, networks, travels and several business engagements.

Together with Ansawise, BASCON’s key stakeholders agreed to pursue opportunities in the infrastructure and construction industries in Africa and to drive the realisation of Africa’s potential.

Its potential is rooted in the realisation that the existence of infrastructure allows countries and nations to thrive, and construction forms hence part of the backbone of a growing economy and national progress.

BASCON is exploring opportunities in and around South- & Sub-Saharan Africa in civil engineering, infrastructure and commercial construction. For these opportunities, BASCON intends to establish local entities to drive the conceptualisation, realisation & operation of the projects.
