The Laboratory for the Analysis of Societies and Powers / Africa – Diasporas (LASPAD) is pleased to invite you to an online seminar on the theme: “The Competitiveness of Senegalese Businesses within the Framework of the AfCFTA.” The AfCFTA marks a decisive step in the continent’s economic integration process. This agreement offers new business opportunities but also significant challenges for Senegalese businesses. Within the context of economic diplomacy, this seminar aims to analyze the factors contributing to the competitiveness of Senegalese businesses in the face of the liberalization of African trade. The goal is to understand how national economic actors can leverage the AfCFTA to strengthen their position in regional markets.
