A road show with the theme “Invest in Ethiopia Knowledge Series” was held successfully in three Indian cities; Pune, Bangalore and Chennai from December 15 to 20, Overseas Infrastructure Alliance Private Limited said.
The road show, organized by OIA was perhaps the first of its kind driven by a single African country, said OIA representatives at a press conference held at the Hilton Hotel on Friday, January 9. The road show headed by Gennet Zewdie, Ethiopian Ambassador to India was aimed at promoting Ethiopia to potential investors in India.
“This is a reflection of collaboration and working for mutual benefit which will eventually strengthen the relationship of our two countries,” said Gennet Zewdie, in a letter of appreciation to OIA.
“We got a good response from potential investors. We have also received good response from those that have already invested in the country and they have shared their positive experiences with the potential investors,” stated Vinod Deokar, General Manager of OIA.
According to Gennet Zewdie, the participation of several companies and the lively discussions and meetings during the road show has contributed to the success of the event.
“Our next step will be to take a business delegation to Ethiopia for pre-investment study visit,” she had said.
