The Global Africa Summit (GAS) is the Africa Investment Network’s flagship, multi-city platform catalyzing trade, investment, and entrepreneurship between Africa, its global diaspora, and partners. The 2025 series convenes decision-makers in Washington, DC (Oct 14–15, The Catholic University of America), Toronto (Oct 23, Toronto Metropolitan University), and Accra (Dec 11–12, Alisa Hotel). Through high-level plenaries, sector tracks (AI/Tech, Agribusiness, Renewable Energy, Climate, Real Estate, Creative Economy, Healthcare Diaspora Finance), and curated B2B/B2G matchmaking, GAS turns dialogue into deals and policy action. Each city features investor dialogues, deal rooms, and cultural programming; DC and Accra will culminate with a Dinner and awards Gala. Theme: “Global Partnerships: Fueling Africa's Development and Collective Prosperity.”
Tagline: “Redefining the Global Footprint of Africa.”
