The Africa Business Initiative (ABI) is the leading advocacy-driven initiative representing America’s top companies doing business across Africa. The initiative focuses on market access and trade facilitation, financing, and engagement with the governments of the United States and African nations.

 

ABI works with the U.S. business community to develop legislative policies that foster foreign direct investment (FDI) in Africa. It also provides tailored guidance to American companies doing business in African nations and introduces U.S. companies to the continent’s vast economic opportunities. Under ABI’s leadership, U.S. corporate representatives involve key members of Congress, the administration, and foreign governments in strategic dialogues to promote private sector engagement.




The Corporate Council on Africa is a key resource for conducting successful business in Africa. We work closely with governments, multilateral groups and businesses to improve Africa’s trade and investment climate and to raise the profile of Africa in the U.S. business community.

 

The Corporate Council on Africa (CCA) is a nonprofit, membership-based organization established in 1993 to promote business and investment between the United States and the nations of Africa. CCA is the premier American organization devoted to U.S.-Africa business relations and includes as members more than 160 companies, which represent nearly 85 percent of total U.S. private sector investments in Africa. CCA’s members range from America’s smallest to largest corporations. They represent a diverse pool of industries from Africa's most promising sectors, including agribusiness, capacity building, energy, finance, health, ICT, infrastructure and security.
