The 1st Africa-China Forum on Agri-Tech and Industrial Cooperation
Overview
Africa and China share a dynamic and evolving partnership in agriculture, based on decades of cooperation and shared development goals. Building on this foundation, the Africa-China Forum on Agri-Tech and Industrial Cooperation, scheduled for June 2025, will bring together leaders from government, industry, and finance to drive forward sustainable agricultural transformation through innovation, investment, and collaborative ventures.
The Forum will spotlight a strong pipeline of investable agribusiness opportunities across Africa, connect participants with leading Chinese agri-tech manufacturers, and facilitate access to capital and technology through partnerships with investors, financiers, and technical experts. It will also provide space for public-private policy dialogues aimed at strengthening the frameworks needed to scale agri-tech solutions. Hosted by AGRA and its partners, the Forum aligns with the AU CAADP Declaration, Strategy and Plan of Action 2025–2035 and represents a critical step in advancing Africa-China cooperation for resilient and inclusive food systems.
