Salon de l’Agriculture et des Resources Animales (SARA) Start-up mission

The purpose of this activity is to include Orange Corners entrepreneurs from Côte d’Ivoire, Senegal and Morocco in the Salon de l’Agriculture et des Resources Animales (SARA fair) and increase the impact of their participation. The SARA fair will be organized in Abidjan and this year The Netherlands is chosen to be country of honour. By providing the Orange Corners start-ups with training, support and better access to markets in preparation for, during and after the SARA, we will maximize the results of their participation at the fair. Besides, the implementing partner will take care of the logistical support to the entrepreneurs (including visa, flights and hotel booking).

The overall aim of the participation in the SARA fair is to promote knowledge transfer, trade and regional integration through the organisation of a start-up trade mission. The secondary purpose of the mission is to establish possible business relationships/ collaborations and networks between the start-ups from the three countries which will add an extra layer to the impact of the current Orange Corners programmes.
