Netherlands African Business Council - NABC

At the Netherlands-African Business Council (NABC) we believe that the Dutch private sector has a prominent role to play in the sustainable development of the African continent. Established in 1946, NABC has grown to an organisation with over 300 Dutch companies ranging from large multinationals to small and medium sized companies and start-ups. Active in nearly every sector, NABC has amassed an extended network of thousands of African business contacts and enjoys collaborative relationships with Dutch knowledge institutions, NGO’s, the Dutch government, African embassies and trade and investment promotion institutes. This positions the NABC uniquely between the public and private sector, and ushers in a significant increase of bilateral trade and investment.

Our young and dynamic team connects Dutch companies with the tremendous economic opportunities Africa has to offer. With our extensive experience, knowledge and our elaborate network, we are in a unique position to support Dutch companies in creating and developing business on the African continent. The NABC is at the forefront of creating mutually beneficial relationships between the Netherlands and Africa that overtime we believe leads to sustainable economic development.

The NABC promotes commerce in Africa by providing Dutch companies with the tools they need to succeed in the various regions and markets across the continent. By hosting multiple events throughout the year, NABC is able to provide their members and associates with valuable networking opportunities that solidify new B2B and B2G relationships. The annual Ambassadors Dinner and the Africa Works! conference are prime examples of such events. In addition, NABC country and sector seminars, workshops and match-making sessions provide professionals with concrete opportunities to make relevant contacts in specific countries and/or sectors.
