On Thursday September 25, 2024, Bruno Tshibangu Kabaji, Managing Director of the Agence Nationale pour la Promotion des Investissements (ANAPI), and Hesham El Mekwad, the Egyptian ambassador accredited to the Democratic Republic of Congo, exchanged views on investment and trade issues.
The Egyptian diplomat was accompanied by Adham Thabet, development cooperation advisor at the Embassy of the Arab Republic of Egypt.
Discussions between the two personalities focused in particular on the role of ANAPI as the body responsible for supporting investors in the DRC.
While stressing the need to increase economic and commercial cooperation between Egypt and the DRC, the two parties encouraged Egyptian investors to step up their presence in several fields in the DRC, notably energy, transport, infrastructure and agriculture, fisheries and livestock.
With this in mind, the Egyptian Ambassador expressed the wish to establish regular contacts with ANAPI to support this mutual ambition.
