The European Union, in partnership with the Government of Togo, has opened applications to startups interested in pitching at its BlueInvest Africa event Lomé, Togo, on October 15-16.
BlueInvest Africa is a leading platform connecting innovative African entrepreneurs in the blue economy sector with international investors and public stakeholders.
After previous editions in Seychelles and Kenya, the 2025 event in Togo aims to highlight investment-ready projects that contribute to a sustainable and inclusive blue economy across Africa.
“BlueInvest Africa is more than just an event – it is a strategic platform to unlock sustainable investment opportunities in Africa’s blue economy, and a concrete example of EU-Africa cooperation in action,” said Charlina Vitcheva, director-general for maritime affairs and fisheries at the European Commission.
This edition is part of the EU’s Global Gateway strategy, strengthening investment flows between Africa and Europe through sustainable business partnerships.
Applications are open here.
