Autres Tuesday 05 November 2024

The Abidjan Port Authority (PAA) set up a stand at the “Invest in Sud-Comoé” regional forum held in Aboisso from 27 to 29 September 2024. The theme of the forum was ‘Setting course for Sud-Comoé: Cultivating innovation and sustainability for shared prosperity’.

‘The business climate has undergone major changes since 2011, and Côte d'Ivoire is making it easier for investors to work (...). This is an extraordinary region, and it is waiting for you, because the President of the Republic has major projects planned to make it a hub of national development’, said the Prime Minister, Minister of Sport and the Living Environment, and Head of Government, Robert Beugré MAMBÉ, in his speech at the opening ceremony on Friday 27 September.

It should be noted that the event was an initiative of the Sud-Comoé Regional Council, in collaboration with the Côte d'Ivoire Investment Promotion Centre (CEPICI) and the Côte d'Ivoire Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCI-CI).

Over the three days, several hundred participants from countries including France, China, the United States of America, the Democratic Republic of Congo, South Korea, Senegal, Tunisia and Morocco were able to discover the business opportunities available in that region of Côte d'Ivoire.

There were also panels, B2B meetings and exhibitions.

The PAA's objective in taking part in the event was to strengthen its visibility by presenting itself as a strategic partner in the development of Côte d'Ivoire
