The most recent Canada-Africa Business Conference in Nairobi, this past February, was described as a ‘great success’ in Canada’s Parliament, and was followed by the inaugural Canada-US Forum for African Partnerships in Washington, DC in May.
Sectors on the upcoming program in Zimbabwe include energy, mining, ICT and education. In addition to these sectors, the Zimbabwe Investment Development Agency has identified tourism, manufacturing and agriculture as among the key opportunities. At the same time, Canadian institutions are also privileged to play a significant role as partners in higher education.
Next month, in preparation for the 3rd Canada-Africa Business Conference, the Chamber will be on-the-ground in Zimbabwe. Members and prospective members and sponsors can email members@canadaafrica.ca to request a meeting in preparation for the conference.
