Euro-Africa Economic & Investment Forum Holding in Helsinki Finland[center][/center]

In a bid to promote Trade and Investment in Africa, Globe Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Partnership with Government of Finland will be organizing the Euro - Africa Economic Forum.

Europe's political interest in Africa has been greatly revived and Finland is viewing Africa as a realm of opportunities where a number of economies are developing very fast and the African middle class is experiencing rapid growth. The determining factors for Trade and Investment flows are beginning to change.

The Euro - Africa Economic Forum is going to serve as a platform or new instrument to promote Investment in Africa. African states needs to implement reforms to improve the environment for investment and also encourage private investors to engage more strongly in Africa.

Also it will create an enabling environment for initiatives in the area of development and Trade between both continents.

This forum will be of mutual benefit to both continents because it will also help Europe to strengthen its position in Africa, a continent with strong economic growth in many regions and rapidly growing population (middle class). Africa is set to play a large economic and political role in the world.
