Diaspora forums

Africa-West

2013

The government has organised several diaspora forums, with strong involvement of the Investment Promotion Centre of Côte d’Ivoire (CEPICI). The Diaspora for Growth forum promoted exchanges between diaspora and Côte d’Ivoire-based business networks, as well as government and other partners. The 2015 edition of the forum was attended by 1500 guests and the 2013 forum reportedly generated 10 billion XOF (around 15.3 million EUR) in investment projects. The third Diaspora Forum was held in 2019 in the presence of the country’s Prime Minister.
