Opportunities for Business and Development

The Business and Development Forum offers a platform for the exchange between academics and decision makers in business, government and development cooperation. The aim is to discuss opportunities and challenges for international business arising from Swiss-African relations as well as the expectations by African societies and stake-holders towards these relations.

Parallel panel sessions will pay special attention to business and society, technology and infrastructure as well as capacity and knowledge. The Forum is organized by the Centre for African Studies Basel in cooperation with the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs, Switzerland Global Enterprise (SGE) and Swisscham Africa.
