On the 15th and 16th of December 2020, NABC organised the Digital Africa Business Days in close cooperation with the Dutch government, TNO and the partners behind the Africa Strategy for the Dutch private sector: VNO-NCW, PUM, DECP, FMO and NLinBusiness. This two day virtual event focused on “Moving Forwards Together”, countering the effects of the COVID-19 crisis and finding innovative solutions to challenges in agriculture, water, energy, healthcare, and circular economy.
With over 1400 registered participants, 100 speakers, and representation of 32 Dutch and African Embassies, the Digital Africa Business Days proved to be a successful platform to engage and find areas for collaboration and partnership. The event featured a live talk show, over 20 thematic sessions, a matchmaking event with the Dutch and African Embassies and numerous sector round tables.
