Ethio-German Konnect (EGK), a forum and networking event, was opened on Wednesday. The business forum is expected to create business opportunities for Ethiopian and German entrepreneurs.

The three day event will present various elements of Ethio-German business relations including private sector development partnership, investments and joint ventures.

EGK is organized by the Returning Experts Program of the Center for International Migration and Development.

The event also hopes to give a platform for returned experts to venture into Ethiopian business according to Kokebe. The emigration of Ethiopian professionals can be reversed if they are enabled to take part in supporting the economic development of the country Kokebe explained.

The EGK event is a significant opportunity to foster connection, networking and collaboration between Ethiopian and German companies said Kokebe.
