IAF: Investing in Africa Forum!

The Investing in Africa Forum (IAF) was established in 2015 as a global platform for multilateral cooperation and promoting opportunities to increase investment in Africa. It is intended to be an annual multi-stakeholder gathering, bringing together representatives of the public and private sectors from China and Africa, international and continental institutions, development partners, and think tanks to deepen policy dialogue, share experiences, and discuss business opportunities to promote and support investment and sustainable development in Africa. This year, with the signing of the MoU and the launch of its first Report on the Drivers and Constraints of Technological Adoption and Innovation that will identify knowledge gaps and propose practical policy guidance on how to spur leapfrogging in African countries, the IATTA will take practical steps to place knowledge generation and dissemination of potentially transformative ideas at the center of investment strategies and operations on the continent.
