The Africa Investment Forum Market Days 2025 concluded in Rabat after three days of strategic exchanges, high-level meetings, and major investment announcements.

We have worked to bridge the gaps that exist between opportunities and capital, between aspirations and achievements, between the public and private sectors, and we will always be determined to bridge those gaps further.
Sidi Ould TAH, President of the African Development Bank Group – Mauritania
The AIF shows an Africa that is embracing its ambition, an Africa that no longer revels in its confidence, but an Africa that no longer defines itself by its constraints but by its solutions. We must mobilise more African capital to finance our African economies with partners who respect our priorities, understand them and support them. The future of the global economy will pass through this continent. Those who invest today will be the leaders of tomorrow.
Nadia Fettah Alaoui, Minister of Economy and Finance
Held under the theme “Bridging the Gap: Mobilizing Private Capital to Fully Unlock Africa’s Potential,” this edition represents a major step forward in the operational maturity of the Africa Investment Forum, which now boasts a portfolio of 41 carefully prepared projects, 39 of which are considered fully investment-ready. This challenge is all the more crucial as the continent is now home to 194 million women entrepreneurs, a major economic force whose access to financing remains key to driving growth and innovation.
