The Ghanaian capital, Accra, witnessed a distinguished participation of the President of the Arab African Center for Investment and Development (CAAID), Mr. Amin Boutalbi, accompanied by members of the Center, in the activities of Africa Prosperity Dialogues 2026, one of the continent’s leading platforms bringing together policymakers, business leaders, financial institutions, and economic experts to discuss youth and women empowerment, support for small and medium-sized enterprises, and prospects for economic integration and sustainable development across Africa.

The Center’s participation in this important continental event reaffirmed its ongoing commitment to strengthening Arab–African cooperation, promoting strategic partnerships based on productive investment, knowledge transfer, and the development of value chains between the two regions. The forum also provided a dynamic space for exchanging perspectives on current economic challenges and the promising opportunities offered by regional integration amid global geopolitical and economic transformations.

On the sidelines of the event, Mr. Amin Boutalbi stated that “the Center’s participation stems from our firm belief that Africa’s future depends on investing in people, empowering youth and women, and supporting small and medium-sized enterprises as the true engine of growth and job creation.” He added that “enhancing Arab–African partnerships is no longer an option but a strategic necessity to address global economic challenges and achieve inclusive and sustainable development.”

The Center concluded its participation by reaffirming its determination to continue working with regional and international partners and to translate the outcomes of Africa Prosperity Dialogues 2026 into practical initiatives and tangible projects that contribute to development, stability, and shared prosperity across the continent.
