Afrika-Verein invited you to attend their online event on the opportunities that the AfCFTA offers to investors in East Africa.

The EAC region plays an important role for the German economy when it comes to business relations with our neighboring continent Africa. The Afrika-Verein supports German and African companies in establishing bilateral economic relations. We place a particular focus on cooperation with national and regional business associations - the Afrika-Verein has been closely linked to the East African Business Council (EABC) since April 2016 through a memorandum of understanding.

This advisory body meets regularly to develop joint recommendations for promoting investment and trade relations between Germany and East Africa.

We would like to exchange views on these topics with you in an exclusive round and identify synergies in the operational and content-related orientation of our activities.

During the session, we will have inputs from EABC and EAC on the following topic: AfCFTA and the opportunities it prevails to the business community and investors at large in the EAC - covering rules of origin, tariff offer as well as customs coordination and collaboration.
