Nairobi — The theme, 'SMEs: Creating Jobs Through Trade' of the upcoming World Export Development Forum to be held in Kigali, Rwanda, from 15-17 September 2014, reflects the importance that the International Trade Centre (ITC) and its partners attach to the role of a vibrant private sector in driving trade-led growth and development.
The ITC's Executive Director Arancha González made this point to delegates at the 99th Council of Ministers of the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) Group of States in Nairobi, Kenya, on 18 June 2014 as she extended them an invitation to the Forum.
