The U.S. Embassy in Yaoundé has invited chief executives of eligible Cameroonian companies to apply for the 18th U.S.-Africa Business Summit in Mauritius from December 6-9, 2026. The event aims to help Cameroonian businesses forge commercial partnerships and attract U.S. investment in priority sectors like energy, infrastructure, health, agribusiness, finance, and technology. Applications for the summit, organized by the Corporate Council on Africa, close on November 16.
The summit's theme is “Advancing New Frontiers in U.S.-Africa Prosperity,” and it will feature business-to-business meetings and investment discussions. This invitation follows the August 27 Cameroon-U.S. Bilateral Economic and Commercial Dialogue in Yaoundé, which identified approximately $7 billion in potential trade and investment opportunities with American companies.
The Corporate Council on Africa organizes the summit to connect companies with potential investors and commercial partners. The dialogue identified opportunities in energy and mining, among other sectors.
