From small island economies such as Jamaica to post-conflict nations such as Côte-d’Ivoire – from the world’s newest economies such as Kosovo to the most exciting emerging economies such as Nigeria – DMA's investment summits assist emerging economies in attracting the inward investment they need.

Typically led by either the Head of State or Head of Government, our investment summits have proven to be the most productive, globally, in terms of generating awareness, matching businesses and in delivering tangible investment outcomes. Over the past seven years, our events are attributed as having facilitated more than US$15 billion in new investments into emerging economies.  Alongside our sovereign investment events, DMA also periodically runs high-level investment missions to country, as well as sector-specific investment meetings and roundtables focused on key development issues.
