Lusophone Africa Investment Forum

The Lusophone Africa Investment Forum is a two-day event hosted by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, on Sal Island, Cabo Verde, on March 13th and 14th, 2025.
The forum aims to foster investment opportunities in the Portuguese-speaking African countries (PALOPs): Angola, Cabo Verde, Equatorial Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, and São Tomé and Príncipe. In collaboration with the partners of the Lusophone Compact, this high-level event will bring together key players from the private sector, as well as national and international investment-enabling institutions — such as Investment Promotion Agencies, Chambers of Commerce, and government representatives — to explore concrete investment opportunities and address key challenges in these markets.
