On the eve of the Africa-US Summit to be held in Washington DC this week, Mr. Carlos Lopes, Executive Secretary of the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) has underscored that with Africa attracting major investments from the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) and other developing economies, it is time for American companies to wake up and participate in the already vibrant and promising African investment terrain. The Summit is taking place against widespread agreement that Africa has evolved into a dynamic market with a growing middle class. In addition, there is a growing understanding among African leaders and people on economic transformation as an imperative for the continent to sustain growth and foster inclusive development.
