In this context, the Indian diplomat invited investors from her country to invest in Algeria and establish solid partnerships with Algerian companies, given the favorable business climate. She noted that 250 out of the 650 pharmaceutical units active in Africa are located in Algeria.

"We hope for strong participation from Africa, especially Algeria, in this event, as India and Africa share a deep historical relationship characterized by solidarity, common aspirations, interests, and shared dreams," she added.
A series of cultural and artistic events, with the expected participation of an Algerian delegation, is scheduled to take place on the sidelines of the summit.
