The CAETP commenced the meeting by presenting an overview of the China-Africa Trade Expo, the progress of the China-Africa Economic and Trade Cooperation Pioneer Zone, and introduced the CAETP fundamental operations, key initiatives, and future development plans.

Mr. Xu Xiangping, former Counselor of the Hunan Provincial People’s Government and President of the Association emphasized that Hunan has ascended to a strategic high ground in China-Africa economic and trade cooperation. He outlined four specific action plans for future collaboration between the two parties, encompassing the formulation of a memorandum, refinement of implementation schemes for industrial park construction in Africa, the establishment of a "four-in-one" office, and the initiation of investment promotion activities in Nigeria's industrial parks, accompanied by targeted roadshow events.

Mr. Nikhil Gandhi shared insights into ARISE IIP’s business layout in Africa, highlighting three core areas: port logistics, integrated industrial parks, and infrastructure construction. To date, ARISE IIP has invested over USD 2 billion in Africa, with more than 500 enterprises established across various parks, spanning 47 industries.
