Through regular presence since 2014 with Christophe Chauvard, business missions and high-level meetings, SVP has progressively built a senior public-private ecosystem connecting business leaders, diversified local groups and conglomerates, public decision-makers, institutions, investors and local partners.

This ecosystem is combined with SVP’s expertise in territorial economic development, international business development and its understanding of business structures that can differ significantly between European and African markets, including diversified groups operating across multiple sectors and capital fragmented between shareholders, local banks, international investors, DFIs and public institutions.

What we have built

Across Senegal, Côte d’Ivoire, Kenya, Rwanda and Europe, SVP has developed an ecosystem connecting: Companies & Conglomerates × Business Leaders × Public Decision-Makers × Institutions × Investors × Territories × Strategic Partners

This ecosystem can support both directions of growth:

International & European companies → Africa
Market entry, local partnerships, business development and access to decision-making ecosystems.

African companies & conglomerates → Africa & Europe
Regional expansion, European market access, strategic partnerships, investment opportunities and connections with international capital.

SVP Added Value

SVP provides more than access to a network. We combine senior-level relationships, market understanding, territorial economic development expertise and knowledge of business and capital structures to help companies navigate unfamiliar ecosystems and build credible pathways for growth.

Connecting African and European companies, capital, decision-makers and territories to accelerate cross-border growth.
