The fair, an initiative of Afreximbank, would be organised in collaboration with the African Union and the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) and hosted by the government of Cote d’Ivoire.

The third in the series, it is expected to generate billions of dollars of trade investment and deals and attended by thousands of visitors and exhibitors.

Speaking at the launch in Accra on Friday, the chairman of the Governing Council of IATF, Olusegun Obasanjo, said the registration of the 2023 IATF was opened.

He said the IATF was to promote trade, jobs in Africa to promote the growth of the continent.

“The IATF is aimed at righting the wrongs of the past and bridge borders in line with the African Union Agenda 2063,” Obasanjo said.

He encouraged exhibitors and organisations to register for the IATF 2023.

The former Nigerian President said the 2021 IATF held in November last year in Durban in South Africa, was more than a trade fair.

“The IATF 2021 was a powerful transformative socio-economic event that fostered trade and investments,” he said.

The former Nigerian President said the event was attended by more than 15 heads of states and thousands of participants and exhibitors.

“IATF 2021 provided platform for trade and investment worth more than $42 billion, ” he said.

He said the event turned out to be resoundingly successful and surpassed the expectation of the organisers.

“IATF 2021 epitomised whatever can be achieved in changing the socio-economic development of Africa,” he said.

He expressed gratitude to all who supported the programme to make it a success, particularly Professor Benedict Oramah, the President of the Board of Directors of Afreximbank Bank, the brain behind IATF 2021and Secretary-General of the AFCFTA, the torchbearer of the event, and the government and people of South Africa for hosting the programme.

The President of the Board of Directors of Afreximbank, Professor Benedict Oramah, outlining the criteria for the selection of a country for the programme, said hosting the event was opened to all African Union member countries.

He said countries decided to host on their own volition, saying “A country must demonstrate capacity to host the conference.”
