Activities of “Investment for Africa” forum will kick off tomorrow Friday at the New Administrative Capital (NAC), under the auspices of Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah El Sisi.

The two-day forum will discuss ways to promote investment in the African continent, particularly in the areas of renewable energy, public transport, entrepreneurship and industries’ localization, digitization and human resources, as well as socially influential investment.

The remarkable platform will be attended by a galaxy of African leaders, regional and international investors, and global financial institutions as well as President of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) Suma Chakrabatri.

The event is considered an opportunity for inking investment agreements and making announcements of various major projects that would contribute to comprehensive and sustainable growth in the black continent.

Moreover, the opening ceremony of the forum will feature Heads of States and a speech from the organizers, followed by a Gala dinner at the NAC for the audience to get a chance to explore the new city.

In addition, the second day of the forum will include an opening session to introduce the agenda for the day and a presidential roundtable along with the startups' demo day session showcasing African youth’s entrepreneurship talent.

The day will be concluded with a dinner banquet at one of Egypt’s magical spots.
