Investment and Technology Promotion in Africa

"Through its Advisory Programme, UNIDO ITPO Germany provides services to the private sector and governments on industry-related issues by assigning local advisors in target markets. The advisors support potential investors and technology providers from Germany with the latest information and advice on the local investment environment to facilitate technology transfer and business matchmaking. Advisors assist with a variety of services required for doing business, such as information on how to operationalize business strategies and policies in local environments and introduction to partners in the public and private sector. They arrange and accompany business meetings, facilitate delegate missions from national representatives to Germany and provide follow-up services, thereby accelerating industrial development and increasing competitiveness in the respective target market. ITPO Germany has established its Advisory Programme in four countries: Côte d’Ivoire, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (until August 2022), Nigeria and Sudan."
