12/06/2010.  Organizers of the Cuba-South Africa Business Forum, sponsored by the Cuba Chamber of Commerce, are giving final touches to preparations for sessions on December 6-7 at Nacional Hotel.

South Africa is attending with more than 50 businesspeople from the mining, tourism, agri-industry, construction, communications and pharmaceutical sectors, led by Minister of Trade and Industry Robert Davis, according to the Granma daily on-line edition quoting the Department of Information and Advertising of the Chamber of Commerce.

The event will enable Cuba to show its goods and services export potentials and opportunities for foreign investment and contribute to strengthen and broaden trade links between the two nations, which established diplomatic relations in 1994 after the end of the apartheid regime and the installation of the first multiracial government in South Africa.

Cuba and South Africa maintain cooperation agreements in health, labor relations, social security, foreign relations and information and communication technologies.
