Investments

The delegates of the CBC also participated in the Africa Investments Meetings
Event (the “Event”) held on 22nd October 2019 at the Great Wall Hotel Beijing.
The Event was jointly organised by the China-Africa Business Council, the
AMDIE, and Winvestnet to promote investment in Africa. The event was well
attended by some 200 participants, including Chinese investors looking into
investing into Africa, ambassadors and representatives of embassies of various
African countries (Morocco, Kenya, Democratic Republic of Congo, Madagascar,
Ghana, and Uganda). The CBC Delegates made presentation at the event to
showcase Mauritius as a gateway for investments in Africa and also about the investment
opportunities in Mauritius.

As part of the Programme, the CBC delegates attended a course on China’s
Economic Development and Reform at Peking University.
We hope to offer this Program again in the future for our Young CBC Members with Leadership potential.
