The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the Georgia Chamber of Commerce, will on September 6th kick off its “Advance with Africa” roadshow in Atlanta at the Russell Innovation Center for Entrepreneurs.
The Russell Innovation Center for Entrepreneurs is a hub for Black business owners and entrepreneurs.
The roadshow, which will go on to make stops at cities across the country, is aimed at increasing U.S. businesses’ understanding of commercial opportunities in Africa, transforming the narrative around Africa’s business climate, and dispelling myths—creating new opportunities for American businesses, big and small.
Chris Clark, President & CEO of the Georgia Chamber of Commerce says the Advance with Africa roadshow is a key component of the U.S. Chamber’s campaign to deepen the U.S. relationship with Africa in the near- and long-term:
He adds that Africa’s population will nearly double by 2050 to 2.5 billion, presenting bold business opportunities for Georgia’s tens of thousands of small- and medium-sized businesses.
