Blue Invest Africa 2022

The event results from a partnership between the European Union and this African country that has put the blue economy at the core of its development.

This event will be in line with the principles of EU-Africa cooperation, as defined inter alia at the occasion of the forthcoming EU-African Union Summit. Those principles rely on addressing the needs of the African population not just in terms of food security but also on sustainable development and growing economic opportunities available to all.

The event will take place during the 7th and 8th of September 2022 in both formats, online and in person in Seychelles, and is directed for:

·       Registered African start-up business companies, already operating in the various sub-sectors of the blue economy.

·       African Small Micro and Medium-sized businesses (SMMEs), not yet officially established in an African country but bearing an innovative idea subject to further commercial development within the African market.

·       Public and private investors interested in blue economy sectors in Africa.

BlueInvest Africa will provide an opportunity to put forward the African know-how and local skills, business projects and initiatives.

The event will be a meeting and exchange point for investment parties, pooled across Europe and Africa, with innovators and entrepreneurs, small-scale businesses and start-ups operating in Africa with the common interest to generate concrete business opportunities, develop sustainable products and services in the blue economy sectors.
