The French Embassy together with a consortium composed of Mazars auditing company, the AfricaFrance foundation, the FSACCI and the Center for Dynamic Markets of the Gordon Institute of Science, have the pleasure of inviting you to the first Francophone Africa Business Forum, which is to take place on the 29^th of June 2016.

 The overall objective of the Forum is to support South Africa in its desire to build economic ties with Francophone African countries. The French Embassy will invite South African businesses planning to invest or establish operations in Francophone Africa for a day of discussions and workshops centered on business opportunities in francophone Africa as well as overcoming cultural differences in said countries.

 In addition, a portion of the day will be dedicated to a presentation of the South African France Alumni network and the advantages of having French speaking manpower behind one’s company.

 The event, which will include a complimentary breakfast and networking lunch, will run from 07h30 to the early afternoon, giving you enough time afterwards to network and mingle with South African business representatives, institutional private and public sector actors and fellow Alumni.
