In January, the Government will host the UK-Africa Investment Summit. The summit will bring together African governments; UK and African businesses; and major international organisations. Formal invitations will be issued shortly from the Prime Minister to invited Heads of State.
The cost of the event is in line with events of a similar size and ambition recently delivered by HMG. We will ensure it delivers value for money and provides positive benefits for both African countries and for the UK.
