Koung Launches 2025 Investment Confab

Vice President Jeremiah Koung has officially launched the 2025 National Investment Conference, declaring the country’s readiness to move beyond aid and embrace trade and investment partnerships.

VP Koung said, the country is no longer seeking charity, but meaningful business engagement.

He said, the country is rich in ‘untapped natural resources,’ and offers significant investment opportunities across various sectors.

Koung identified key areas for potential investment, including agriculture, iron ore, gold, diamonds, hydrocarbons, infrastructure, human capital development, education, and road construction.

“These sectors,” he said, “are critical to the country’s economic transformation and present substantial opportunities for both local and international investors.”

At the 2025 National Investment Conference, Mrs. Ngone Diop, Director of the Sub-Regional Office for West Africa at the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA), commended the country’s progress in creating a ‘favorable investment climate.’

Madam Diop assured potential investors that the country is safe, open, and fully prepared for business, underscoring it commitment to sustainable economic development.

The conference, sponsored by Orange-Liberia, has attracted hundreds of prospective investors from around the world; all eager to explore opportunities across the country’s growing sectors. Source: DN News
