SEVILLE, SPAIN – President Daniel Chapo met with Africa50 CEO Alain Ebobissé on Wednesday to discuss investment partnerships focused on energy, transport, and ICT infrastructure in Mozambique. The meeting, held in Seville, forms part of ongoing efforts to strengthen ties between the Mozambican government and the pan-African infrastructure investment platform.
Ebobissé presented a series of project proposals aimed at accelerating development in key sectors of the Mozambican economy. He confirmed Africa50’s interest in collaborating on specific infrastructure initiatives, including energy generation, road and transport upgrades, and digital infrastructure expansion.
“We discussed concrete projects in the energy sector, the transport sector, and ICT. These are critical areas where we believe Africa50 can support Mozambique’s development agenda,” said Ebobissé after the meeting.
The CEO also expressed appreciation to President Chapo for agreeing to host Africa50’s Annual General Shareholders Meeting in Maputo this August. The gathering, scheduled for 13 August 2025, is expected to attract heads of state, ministers of finance, global investors, and key players in infrastructure development across Africa and beyond.
Mozambique, one of the 33 African countries that co-own Africa50 alongside the African Development Bank (AfDB), is looking to leverage the summit to position itself as a regional hub for investment and economic transformation.
The Seville engagement builds on a previous meeting between the two leaders where infrastructure financing was also on the agenda. Chapo’s administration is keen on tapping strategic partnerships to unlock Mozambique’s potential and support sectors vital to the country’s long-term economic resilience and population wellbeing.
