We are pleased to invite you to the Africa Forum at the University of Texas at Dallas. The Africa Forum at UTDallas (AF-UTD) is a human capital development product of Economic Growth and Development Center (EGDC) hosted by the International Center and the School of Economic, Political and Policy Sciences at the ultra-modern University of Texas at Dallas in the United States.
The AF-UTD is a public meeting of individuals and people from academia, businesses, governments and civic organizations that are committed to practical human capital deficiency solutions that can help accelerate the progress of Africa, making the continent more globally integrated for the promotion of its economic competitiveness, with benefits to the world at large. In this, the AFUTD aims to secure practical international partnerships to help participating African public and private institutions become more globally productive and competent.
Benefits to Participants
The global partnerships harnessed at the Africa Forum at UTDallas will promote and help strengthen economic, business and socio-cultural ties with US companies for stronger and more mutually beneficial global economic competitiveness for nations, states/provinces or organizations. We anticipate that the activities of the Forum will greatly promote the expansion of trade and investment opportunities for institutions and industries. In addition, our efforts to help bridge global skills gaps along the production value chain for African organizations/institutions will help reduce organizational production costs and boost the global visibility and competitiveness among participating nations, states/provinces or organizations.
In this regard we aim to mobilize practical business, public policy and academic solutions to help Africa become more globally competitive and better integrated in the global market place.
