Presentación de "The Africa Investment Report 2015"

Casa África, in its work to support the internationalisation of Spanish companies, disseminates the African economic reality through its activities. To acquaint Spanish society in general, and companies in particular, about  the opportunities offered by the African markets, Casa África organises presentations of studies, articles and reports published by organisations and other international actors.

Such is the case with the Africa Investment Report 2015,a report produced jointly by This is Africa and fDi intelligence, two Financial Times services whose representatives will participate in this presentation provided by Casa África and that will take place on 3rd December at the headquarters of the CEOE in Madrid (C/.
