NEW ALAMEIN, Egypt — African business leaders, investors, policymakers and financial institutions are gathering in Egypt for the inaugural Alamein Africa Forum, taking place from October 2 to 4.
The forum is being held in New Alamein and is designed to strengthen economic partnerships across the continent and encourage investment in major development sectors.
According to organisers, discussions will focus on areas including infrastructure, energy, digital transformation, manufacturing and intra-African trade.
The gathering provides an opportunity for governments, private companies and financial institutions to connect directly and explore potential partnerships and investment opportunities.
Egypt is hosting the forum in cooperation with organisations including the African Union, AUDA-NEPAD and Afreximbank.
An exhibition running alongside the forum will also showcase projects, investment opportunities, productive sectors and African companies.
Organisers describe the forum as a platform intended to move beyond discussions about Africa’s development priorities and toward mobilising investment and partnerships capable of supporting concrete projects across the continent.
