Equatorial Guinea Forum Promotes Investment to U.S. Firms

An investment forum focused on Equatorial Guinea attracted an overflow audience at the St. Regis Hotel in Washington in August. "We already have attracted some of the world's largest resource exploration companies - Marathon, Exxon Mobil, Noble Energy - and together we have laid the foundation for development and economic growth in many other aspects of the Equatorial Guinean economy," said Gabriel M Obiang Lima, Minister of Mines, Industry & Energy, which organized the event. "With the Investment Forum, we are reaching out to more American businesses to let them hear first-hand from distinguished government Ministers and our President about doing business in our booming emerging economy," the Minister said in an interview. "We welcome large corporations as well as small and medium ones. We want them to invest in our health care, education, manufacturing, and natural resources. Building these various sectors will not only create profits for the companies that invest, but it will create jobs and foster economic opportunities for the citizens of Equatorial Guinea."
