The event will bring together government, business and investor leaders from both continents to strengthen economic and trade ties and promote opportunities for investment, innovation and partnerships between the public and private sectors, with a focus on infrastructure, energy, technology, agriculture and industry.
The summit, organised in collaboration with the Corporate Council on Africa (CCA), "marks an important moment for Africa and for the sustainable development of its economies, while strengthening relations with the American market", the Presidency's press release highlights.

This global forum, which has been held for more than two decades, "strengthens trade relations between African and American companies, providing a platform for dialogue between leaders and investors, with the aim of catalysing new projects and partnerships that drive sustainable economic development on the African continent".
