The Government of Japan, the Government of Kenya and Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO)
will hold the Second Japan-Africa Public-Private Economic Forum at Nairobi as a business forum that will bring together people from the highest levels of the public and private sectors in Japan and Africa to discuss how all these sectors can work together to achieve concrete business outcomes.
The Japan-Africa Public-Private Economic Forum (JAfEF) is held every three years, with the aim of promoting cooperation between them in areas such as trade and investment, infrastructure, and energy, as well as assisting Japanese companies in developing their business in Africa. The launch of this forum was originally announced by former Prime Minister Abe at the Sixth Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD VI) in Kenya in August 2016. The first forum was held in South Africa, in May 2018
