IOM / Japanese Government — Sierra Leone Diaspora Agribusiness Investor Forum
The objective of the Sierra Leone Diaspora Agribusiness Investor Forum is to promote investments and trade for Sierra Leoneans in the diaspora in their country of origin post-Ebola and -mudslide disasters. As Sierra Leone enters a new era via the recent change of government, the country is keen to restore investor confidence and attract investments from both their diaspora kinfolk and foreign direct investors.
An investment climate ushered in by the diaspora will not only have a positive impact on the domestic economy, it will enhance the investment promotion efforts, the country’s image and its overall credibility.
As part of the Agribusiness Investor Forum, Freetown Pitch Night is holding a special pitch night session on September 18th 2018. Investment ready agribusinesses will have an opportunity to present to an audience of Diaspora and Japanese investors.
