Why should you attend this event? People in Central Indiana are becoming aware of the many extraordinary links between Indy and Africa: educational, medical, humanitarian, religious. They are less aware of the commercial and trade connections, and the possibilities for even more economic opportunities that could build on the other connections. This is a platform to create a direct interaction between government representatives of different African nations and business and professional people in Indiana and Midwest – especially those with interest in Africa. Set are the ambassadors from South Africa, Nigeria, and Malawi. Expect more.
If you think this event sounds interesting, be sure to check out … The rest of the African Festival August 14 and August 15. The public scholars conference on African economic development October 29-31 is a must for an academic perspective on the past and future.
