The African Development Bank will hold a presentation on Africa Investment Forum (AIF), Africa's leading investment market, on Monday, 23 July in Tunis. This presentation will precede the first ever "Africa Investment Forum", to be held in Johannesburg from 7 to 9 November 2018.
Tunis will be the first stage of a regional road show that will lead a high-level delegation of the African Bank in Cairo on the 25th, Casablanca on the 27th and Algiers on the 29th of July.
