AgriBusiness Forum 2011

The AgriBusiness Forum is one of EMRC International’s showcase events, aimed at strengthening the Agri-Food sector in Africa, by encouraging partnerships, the exchange of best practices and attracting investments.

The 2011 edition of the AgriBusiness Forum will focus on Engaging the Private Sector for Africa's Agri-Food Growth.

We believe that the success of Africa depends on the development and growth of its private sector. The four-day forum is a combination of Plenary Sessions, Technical Workshops, Pre-organized Business -  B2B - Meetings and a Market Place.

The AgriBusiness Forum 2011 will gather agribusiness leaders and decision makers including private entities, financiers, donors, industrialists, researchers, Governments, int’l Organisations, NGOs, and others from the North and the South.
