The Invest in Senegal Forum 2025, held on October 7–8 at the Abdou Diouf International Conference Center (CICAD) in Dakar, brought together more than one hundred government leaders, investors, and institutional representatives with a common goal: to promote strategic and sustainable investment in Senegal.

The discussions addressed key sectors such as energy and critical resources, health, industry, agriculture, ICT and artificial intelligence, as well as cultural and sports industries. These areas represent fundamental pillars for Senegal’s economic development, as the country positions itself as a regional investment hub with an estimated GDP growth of 8.4% in 2025.

Representing IBAFCAN, Agustín Manrique de Lara, Technical Secretary General of IBAFCAN, took an active part in the sessions, reinforcing the role of the Canary Islands as a bridge between Europe and Africa. His participation underscored the importance of strengthening Canary–Senegal trade relations, which in 2024 exceeded 94 million euros in exports, maintaining a consistent trade surplus for the archipelago.
