Bringing together Heads-of-State, decision makers, multinationals and investors, the upcoming three-day event under the theme "Unlocking Africa's Value Chains," will be the continent’s foremost business gathering.
The Africa Investment Forum is a dynamic, multi-stakeholder platform focusing on continental dealmaking, facilitating connections between project sponsors, policy makers and investors and has mobilised $ 142 billion in investment interest since 2018.
The upcoming event will add significant value to investors, partnering them with carefully curated opportunities at a time of substantial transformation across the African continent. Following Morocco’s recent hosting of the IMF and World Bank Annual meetings, the continent is centre stage as Africa witnesses groundbreaking developments, including the construction of a new 6,000 km energy pipeline and races towards its collective commitment to renewable energy ahead of COP28.
The transactional setting, evidenced in its trademark Boardrooms, is geared toward providing a robust pipeline of deals across the Continent for investors seeking opportunities in emerging markets. The platform will offer efficient solutions to investors seeking to channel capital into critical sectors in line with Sustainable Development Goals, the African Development Bank’s High 5s, and the African Union’s Agenda 2063.
Amidst the dynamism of one of the continent’s leading lights, this year’s AIF Market Days Event in Morocco promises to provide a unique portal for project sponsors, investors and policy makers.
