The data that will be announced in the Report available in a few weeks have been anticipated. The Report is the result of a partnership between the African Union and the OECD.

Carlo Bonomi, president of Assolombarda, referring to political decision-makers, explained that "few realize that since 2000 the PII in Africa has more than tripled, with an average annual growth rate of 4,6% compared to 7,2, 2,8% of Asian locomotives, XNUMX% of Latin America ».

Essential requirements for the social sustainability of the continent's economic development".
The growth of Africa is expected, for 2019, of 3,6%. Domestic demand is growing by 6,7% and is moving towards processed products.

The objective is to encourage and encourage cooperation between Italian and African companies. Even with on-site training and training.
The report uses the lessons learned in 5 African regions (central, eastern, northern, southern and western) to address and share good practices.
The central points are 3: providing commercial services to business clusters, developing regional production systems and improving the ability of exporting companies to grow in rapidly changing markets.
