Gabon-France Forum: ANINF promotes Gabonese digital expertise in Paris
The National Agency for Digital Infrastructures and Frequencies (ANINF), an entity under the Gabonese Ministry for Digital Economy and New Information Technologies authority, will be taking an active part in the first Gabon-France Business Forum, to be held in Paris on 29th May. This economic event is an opportunity for ANINF to promote its expertise with a view to forging partnerships to strengthen Gabon’s digital sovereignty. Gabon and France are looking to strengthen their decades-old economic cooperation, at a forum organised by the Gabonese Ministry of Economy and Participations and French Business Confederation (MEDEF), under the theme “For a reinvigorated partnership”. French investment in Gabon has been declining for more than 10 years. The forum, which will bring together more than 300 decision-makers and industry leaders, including government representatives, companies, financial institutions, experts and businessmen, will be an opportunity to discuss investment opportunities and the challenges to be overcome in order to strengthen economic and trade relations between Gabon and France. The Paris meeting will be an opportunity for Gabon to showcase its digital expertise through ANINF. The aim will be to present e-government projects contributing to Gabon’s digital transformation to potential investors and partners, with a view to developing partnerships with MEDEF companies specialised in this field. Through these partnerships, ANINF intends to pursue its mission of digitising the Gabonese administration, in particular to improve administrative services offered to population. The meeting in French capital is therefore an important turning point for attracting investors and forging partnerships in cybersecurity, with the aim of building Gabon’s digital sovereignty.
