This issue is a round-up of Invest Salone’s work supporting private sector–led growth in Sierra Leone. It includes highlights from our impact to date in unlocking investment and strengthening businesses, updates on the poultry feed sector and investment opportunities, insights from our Technical Assistance Facility and stories on how our partnerships are helping women entrepreneurs build sustainable businesses.
As part of our work to encourage investment into Sierra Leone, we co-hosted a delegation of nine major international investment institutions. During the five-day trip, participants visited 20 firms and interacted with around 50 more through several events such as a pitch night where entrepreneurs pitched and received feedback on their businesses.
In this issue, we share Invest Salone’s new downloadable Investment Toolkit for SMEs in Sierra Leone, which provides support to help firms prepare for impact investment.
