Hon. Nwabueze Buchi
George who was speaking from Abuja Nigeria said that the event like others they
have organized is aimed at boosting trade and investment between Africa and
Europe.
He further stated that
beyond the trade, it will also help scale up production in Africa via quality
and quantity.
“There are rules for export and the key thing
there is quality and global standards”
“When the doors are
open, every producer will start making things for the world which will now
become their immediate environment”
He also revealed that
the event is part of their World Economic and Investment Forum, adding that
2023 will see them replicate same template for Asia and America especially.
Hon. Buchi George said
that at the moment, they are working on bringing all countries on board,
stating that the idea is already exciting embassies across the continents.
“People are already excited and we understand
that we have to plan and ensure we achieve our set goals for the event”
“Every great nation
has given their local producers global mindset by opening a common door that
will easily enable them to reach people around the globe”
“We also have a
contrary mindset about what people call local producers because we know that
everything is local in it’s original environment, but foreign the moment it
leaves there”, he said.
Hon. Buchi George
agreed that while lots of African producers are thinking global at the moment,
there is also need to practically and strategically demonstrate to others on the
need for a global vision, but clearly stating that before that could be
achieves doors will be opened by projects like the Euro-Africa Economic and
Investment Forum 2023.
