As part of the Ministerial Conference of the Francophonie (OIF) to be held on November 4 and 5, 2023 in Yaoundé, several side events will be organized. In this context, the OACPS R&I Program associated with IFDD is organizing a conference-debate on November 5, which will focus on “How to make young green entrepreneurs the spearhead of sustainable development in Francophone Africa?”.

Its aim is to provide information on best practices for investment in research and innovation (R&I) and the economic valorization of its results, as well as potential solutions to the challenges facing young innovators and entrepreneurs.

The expected presence of H.E. Madame Madeleine Tchuinte, Cameroon’s Minister of Scientific Research and Innovation (MINRESI), testifies to the importance and relevance of this event.
