We collaborated with the Ethiopian Chamber of Commerce to organize the Mayors and Private Sector Conference consecutively for two years in 2021 and 2022. This influential event aimed to foster strong business communities in cities by promoting public-private partnerships, laying the groundwork for robust economic growth and development. Through discussions on leveraging public-private cooperation, the conference aimed to create an environment conducive to economic strength and sustainability. This initiative exemplified our commitment to fostering collaborations for the betterment of local economies and business environments.
