Description

"Trade agreements, industrial strategies, bilateral commitments: the shared ambition between Africa and Europe has never been stronger. Turning this ambition into installed productive capacity, skilled jobs, and value chains rooted in the continent depends on a set of concrete conditions that make all the difference—financing, energy, land access, skills, and the regulatory framework. Drawing on documented industrial success stories, this session highlights the levers that have enabled projects to succeed and the best practices that can be replicated across the continent. A results‑oriented conversation to fuel a dynamic of Africa–Europe co‑construction focused on action. "
