THE FIRST COTE D’IVOIRE-NORTH AMERICA FORUM

The American Chamber of Commerce in Cote d’Ivoire participated in the 1st Business and Investment Forum between Cote d’Ivoire and North America on Thursday 11 and Friday 12, November 2021 at the Radisson Blu Hotel. This Forum was organized by Economic Promotion of Cote d’Ivoire in the United States, Canada, and Mexico (SPECI-USA). This Forum saw the participation of many companies coming from all over the world to participate in the strengthening of private investment in Cote d’Ivoire.

It was chaired by the Minister Delegate to the Minister of State, Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Diaspora, Alcide Djédjé, in charge of African Integration, who indicated that the second edition of the Forum will be held in 2023.
In his speech, Alcide Djédjé, noted the importance of this forum, especially since, he underlines, the government has given priority to the private sectors in the implementation of the National Development Plan (Pnd 2021 -2025). The Minister Delegate in charge of African Integration, therefore, invited foreign investors to engage with Ivorians through win-win partnerships.
