MEDEF International's France-East Africa Business Council and the Sustainable Cities Task Force are organizing the Tanzania-France business mission and forum to be held from May 27 to 29 in Dar es Salaam and Zanzibar.

The mission revolves around a business forum in Dar Es Salam dedicated to infrastructure, energy, transport and urban development, organized in partnership with the French-Tanzanian Chamber of Commerce (FTCC) and the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs. The forum will bring together :
