Dear Mr. Sharp,  Corporate Council on Africa's (CCA’s) 30th Anniversary & Awards Gala this past Friday was a wonderful and memorable event.   We were pleased to recognize past CCA leaders for their vision and commitment to making CCA the dynamic, impactful organization that it is today. For those who joined us, we thank you for your contributions to making the evening not just a recognition of CCA's successes, but also of the strides made and imperative to continue strengthening trade and investment relationships between the businesses and people of the United States and the nations of Africa.   For those who were unable to attend, please know that you were missed.  I offer a special note of thanks to our sponsors for the evening.  Without you, the Gala would not have been possible. During the Gala, we were pleased to show a video recap of CCA’s first thirty years, and photos from the event can be found here. Now, having celebrated the past, Corporate Council on Africa is looking forward to a future that builds on and strengthens U.S.-Africa trade, investment, and business partnerships. We at CCA embrace partnering with you to realize that new future.  We invite you to join us in a full calendar of CCA events in 2024, including our 16th U.S.-Africa Business Summit to be held May 6-9 in Dallas, Texas.   Warm regards and here’s to a festive holiday season which we were happy to kick off at the Gala,   Florizelle Liser President & CEO Corporate Council on Africa
