Af-IX x Digital Investment Facility

[Carvalho, Thierno Edouard GIZ SN]

Dear team at the The African IXP Association,

I am contacting you on behalf of the Digital Investment Facility (DIF) at Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ, Regional Hub, Dakar Senegal),
where we thrive to match European Union (EU) funding with impactful projects connected with green and secure data infrastructure in the sub-Saharan West Africa.
Please find related presentation attached.

The mandate for the GIZ / DIF - stemming from the Data Economy project, originates in the strategic partnership between the African Union (AU) and the EU around the Digital transformation of Africa.
Also, please find useful links below.
