Event takes place September 17 – 20, 2025 during “African Diaspora Heritage Month”

(Black PR Wire) Wilmington, Delaware – The Center for Global Africa, USA and Marcus Garvey Institute, in partnership with the U.S. International African Chamber of Commerce have joined together to present the 14th Annual Pan African Global Trade and Investment Conference (PAGTIC). 

PAGTIC-DE takes place from Wed., Sept. 17 thru Sat. Sept. 20, 2025 in Wilmington, on the margins of the UN General Assembly.

With Delaware being the “Corporate Capital of the World,” PAGTIC-DE will convene U.S. and state officials, African leaders and delegates from Ghana, Sierra Leone, Ethiopia, South Africa, Lesotho, Cote d'Ivoire, the African Union, and Jamaica, along with premier thought leaders and practitioners at the highest levels of influence. Participants will share experiences, address obstacles, and present mutually beneficial U.S.-Africa-Caribbean investment opportunities. This includes focuses on Africa’s official development blueprint of Agenda 2063 (“The Africa We Want”), U.S. Commercial Diplomacy and co-creating “niche Africa-Diaspora relations and business opportunities.”

“It’s only fitting that PAGTIC-DE takes place in September during African Diaspora Heritage Month,” says Alicia Clark, CGA Director of Global Partnerships. “This conference links relationships and direct investments between U.S. companies and entrepreneurs and fast-growing economies of African and Caribbean nations.  So this year’s theme: ‘Shaping the Future by Connecting Markets and Building Prosperity,’ aims to do just that and so much more.”
