The forum is open to investors, project owners, institutions and public administrations, accredited press and protocol guests. Each registers under the matching profile, which determines the matchmaking recommendations received.
Registration is free and completed online: email address, password, then confirmation of your email. Identity, profile and organisation are completed afterwards in My Forum.
Orange Money, Moov Money and bank card. The transaction is encrypted and no bank details are retained by the organisers. Participation fees will be published when registration opens.
The profile you complete in My Forum is compared with those of other participants: target sectors, funding sought against the declared investment range, countries of operation and target markets, profile complementarity and common availability across the two days. You receive your most relevant matches, together with an explanation of what you have in common. The weighting and the ranking stay internal.
You select a profile, propose three time slots and attach a message. Once a slot is accepted, the system automatically allocates a B2B room at the CICB and blocks the time in both agendas. A reminder is sent 24 hours and then 15 minutes before the meeting.
The system is sized for 400 meetings over the two days, in 15 dedicated rooms. Slots last 30 minutes, with a five-minute turnaround between meetings.
That depends on your nationality. Check the requirements with the Malian embassy or consulate responsible for your country of residence. An official invitation letter is issued by API-Mali to participants whose registration is confirmed.
