# The Cape Town Manufacturing Summit is exploring investment opportunities and strategies to grow the Western Cape’s industrial sector. Manufacturing contributes approximately 15-percent of the province’s gross value added and remains a major source of employment. The Western Cape accounts for about 70-percent of South Africa’s renewable energy component manufacturing. Key growth areas include agro-processing, advanced manufacturing and green technologies. Strategic initiatives, including the Atlantis Special Economic Zone, aim to attract investment, boost exports, develop skills and create jobs.
