AGOA Forum private sector session | AGOA and Beyond
This year's AGOA Forum will provide a dialogue between U.S. and African government and private sector stakeholders that will set the tone and path for enhancing the future U.S.-Africa trade and investment relationship beyond the current September 2025 expiration of AGOA.
This session is a critical opportunity for governments and companies to think creatively about how best to use all available tools, including the market access provided under AGOA, to create a stronger U.S.-African trade and investment partnership that supports both African and U.S. companies, creates jobs, and promotes economic transformation on both sides of the Atlantic – something that is a core goal of the Prosper Africa Build Together campaign.
Last Day to Register | Friday, October 15
