West Africa Business Association -50th Capacity Building Anniversary Event and Workshops Accra, Ghana 17 - 19 October 2006 |
 |
 |
|
| The development of international linkages, partnerships and joint ventures is key to increasing trade, both for African and UK companies. However, many companies (particularly SMEs) and Intermediary Organisations e.g. Trade Associations & Chambers of Commerce in Africa, do not have the experience or understanding to successfully develop these partnerships and identify prospective partners. Similarly, African intermediaries and companies are not effectively promoting potential opportunities to potential overseas partners because of their inexperience in the field of presentation. There is therefore an urgent need to help the West African Intermediary Organisations (IOs), such as Chambers and Trade Associations, to upgrade their services so that they can provide greater advice and support to their members.
