Discover the opportunities in the Guinean market on 29 October in Brussels, with hub.brussels and CBL-ACP. Rapid growth, an emerging middle class, and urgent needs: this strategic seminar is designed for Brussels-based companies looking to establish themselves in a fast-evolving economy.
About
As part of the African Business Sessions, hub.brussels is organising a seminar in collaboration with CBL-ACP, focused on the opportunities within the Guinean market.
Guinea Conakry, rich in natural resources and strategically located, is experiencing accelerated growth driven by record-breaking investments, particularly in the mining sector. By 2026, GDP growth could exceed 10%, fuelled by booming local demand and the rise of an urban middle class. This is a market undergoing major transformation, with vast and pressing needs — a must-consider destination for forward-thinking businesses.
This event offers a unique opportunity to gain deeper insight into the challenges and dynamics of this transforming market, and to engage with experts and companies already active in the country.
With contributions from:
- The Ambassador of the Kingdom of Belgium to Conakry
- The Ambassador of Guinea to Brussels
- With the support of ENABEL
