The Chamber of Commerce and Investment for Africa, Russia and Eurasia held its third official meeting on Wednesday, March 12 to address strategic and operational issues for the economic and socio-cultural development of relations between its member countries. Representatives of more than 10 African and Eurasian states took part in the meeting.
One of the main points discussed at this meeting was the postponement of the Dakar 2025 Economic and Sociocultural Forum to a later date. This postponement follows the request of the Senegalese authorities to better adapt this major event to the challenges and expectations of stakeholders. This postponement will allow for a more efficient organization and broader participation of economic and institutional stakeholders.

Meeting participants were informed of the launch of the CCI website, which will evolve into the platform to host the database of priority projects from CCI member countries. This was an opportunity to remind member country representatives of the proposal to provide lists of strategic projects by region.
The cooperation between the CCI and APIX (Agency for the Promotion of Investments and Major Projects in Senegal) was highlighted, with the latter establishing itself as a key player, actively participating in discussions and supporting CCI initiatives. Its involvement aims to strengthen Senegal's attractiveness to international investors and ensure a favorable business environment.

The CCI also highlighted a strategic collaboration with Senegal's National Agropole Program. This program, which aims to structure and develop agriculture through eight national clusters, requires significant investment. The CCI is therefore committed to supporting this initiative, which is crucial for the country's food sovereignty and economic growth.
This third meeting of the CCI Africa, Russia & Eurasia marks a key step in structuring future actions and initiatives. With a focus on identifying priority projects, involving the private sector, collaborating with structuring programs and the desire to produce tangible results, the CCI is a major player in economic development between Africa, Russia and Eurasia.
