Corporate council for Africa (CCA) lunch - UNGA

Kamel Ghribi was delighted to participate a special lunch during the UNGA in New York that was organised by the Corporate Council on Africa (CCA) and featured many leaders from African nations. The GK Investment Holding Group Chairman addressed Ministers, Ambassadors and Dignitaries from Angola, the Ivory Coast, Mali and Botswana who were present at the lunch.

Kamel Ghribi emphasised the importance of unity and coherence between nations if we are to improve the living and economic conditions of our brothers and sisters throughout the African continent. Many innovative ideas were exchanged in the less formal setting of a lunch and discussions focused on U.S. - Africa business relations – an area of expertise for the CCA as they have fostered many important projects down the years that have brought successful investment to Africa.

Other topics on the agenda included African economic reforms, healthcare priorities on the continent and investment in several featured African nations as well as talks concerning how to advance health priorities in Africa. Much of the discussion centred around the enabling environment for successful public/private partnerships in the African health sector, however other sectors for investment were also covered in particular prospects in the oil and gas sectors, and the growing opportunities that need to be developed and seized.
