East Africa - The land of opportunities Can East Africa become the food factory of the world? The participants in East Africa Agricultural Value Chain Investment Summit 2012 believe that the answer is yes! The summit, to be held at Serena Hotel, Kampala Uganda on 4th - 6th December 2012, is the biggest and most important event for value-added agriculture in East Africa. Organised by the UK based Focus on East Africa (FOEA) and supported by the Uganda government, the summit is a promising opportunity for Companies that are looking at creating investment opportunities and opportunities to create shared value among players in the agriculture value chain in the region.
