This event will showcase more than $50 billion of curated bankable projects to investors. The sessions were to have been held during the Africa Investment Forum Market Days Event in December 2021, which was postponed due to the omicron variant of the Covid-19 virus.

The boardrooms will feature projects in key priority sectors identified in the Africa Investment Forum’s 2020 Unified Response to Covid-19 initiative. The sectors include agriculture and agro-processing; education; energy and climate; healthcare; minerals and mining; information and communications technology and telecommunication; and industrialization and trade. Nine of these projects are women-led, with a potential value of $5 billion.

Launched in 2018, the Africa Investment Forum is a multi-stakeholder, multi-disciplinary platform that advances private and public-private partnership projects to bankability. It also raises capital and accelerates deals to financial closure. The Africa Investment Forum is an initiative of the African Development Bank with Africa 50; the Africa Finance Corporation; the African Export-Import Bank; the Development Bank of Southern Africa; the Trade and Development Bank; the European Investment Bank; and the Islamic Development Bank as founding partners.
