The East African Business Council (EABC) in partnership with the East African Community (EAC) will be organizing the East African Business and Investment Summit & Expo 2025 on 30th & 31st October 2025 in Nairobi, Kenya.

The East African Business and Investment Summit convenes the EAC Council of Ministers and business leaders from the region, continent and beyond to foster trade and investment ties plus chart out the East Africa Economic Agenda. This year Summit will take place at an important confluence of several important developments, including the continued advance of the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA), the commencement of the Tripartite Agreement implementation, and other global dynamics such as climate change and de-globalization. The summit will explore continental and global trends, aiming to reposition the EAC as Africa’s premier trade and investment hub.

The East African Business & Investment Summit & Expo 2025 will reflect progress on the resolutions of the previous Summit held in Kampala in 2023, discuss solutions to intra and extra EAC trade and investment barriers, and explore opportunities in the business landscape. This summit is not just about dialogue but tangible action.
