Senegalese President Bassirou Diomaye Faye has arrived in Abidjan for the Africa CEO Forum, following an invitation from Ivorian President Alassane Ouattara. This marks Faye’s second official visit to Côte d’Ivoire since taking office in March 2024.

The annual forum convenes political leaders, top business executives, investors, and media professionals to shape strategies for Africa’s economic transformation. This year’s theme, “Can a New Public-Private Deal Reshape the Continent’s Future?” reflects growing calls for stronger collaboration.

Faye’s participation signals Senegal’s commitment to deepening regional ties and advancing its private sector. His presence is expected to open doors for fresh partnerships.

The event also provides a strategic platform for fostering investment and innovation amid Africa’s dynamic economic landscape.
