“Making connections with others can be life changing and at Frontier we believe in the power of connection and collaboration.””
A Message from Our CEO, Gayle Meikle
At Frontier, we are dedicated to unlocking opportunities in the global upstream oil and gas sector. Since 2011 when we started, we have earned a reputation for connecting governments, industry leaders, and investors- - facilitating deals, shaping conversations, and driving investment into both emerging and established markets.
As CEO, leading Frontier is not only a privilege, but a responsibility that I take to heart. A cornerstone of our work at Frontier is our Global Summits—signature events that have become vital touch points for the global oil and gas industry. The Africa Energies Summit and the World Energies Summit are designed to open doors for decision-makers and stakeholders across the upstream value chain. They are immersive, high-level platforms where governments, IOCs, independents, and investors engage in meaningful discussions, build valuable relationships, and identify investment opportunities across some of the most exciting frontier markets.
What makes our Global Summits so unique is the caliber of participants they attract and the quality of interactions that take place. These events aren’t just about listening to presentations - they are built around real-time deal-making, networking, and cross-border collaboration. As the industry continues to evolve, our Summits play a critical role in shaping the future of upstream oil and gas, fostering connections that drive exploration, development, and investment.
Additionally, our worldwide Membership Group is an integral part of this ecosystem. Our members span Houston, London, Cairo, Luanda, Kuala Lumpur, and beyond, making it a truly global network that helps to bridge the gap between emerging markets and global investors. By engaging with our Global Summits and Membership network, our stakeholders are not only present at the forefront of industry developments but are also empowered to capitalise on the high-value opportunities our events facilitate.
The upstream industry is dynamic and competitive, and at Frontier, we remain focused on driving forward-thinking discussions, creating platforms that attract the right stakeholders, and ensuring that the right opportunities are always within reach for those ready to seize them.
I am incredibly proud of what we have achieved so far, and I’m excited about the future. As new markets emerge and global investment flows continue to evolve, Frontier will remain committed to creating the Summits, networks, and platforms that define the future of the upstream oil and gas industry.
Thank you for being a part of our journey.
