As the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) marks its 25th anniversary in 2025, it stands as a beacon of Global South solidarity. This transformative partnership has propelled China-Africa relations to unprecedented heights: strategic partnerships established with all 53 African diplomatic allies, bilateral trade multiplied by nearly 30 times, and Chinese investment surging almost 100-fold. These achievements have delivered tangible benefits to people across both regions.
Over 25 years, FOCAC has not only accelerated China-Africa collaboration but also set a global benchmark for development cooperation. Its success stems from core principles:
Authentic Solidarity: Prioritizing mutual respect and shared growth.
South-South Synergy: Creating platforms for developing economies to collaborate.
Cross-Cultural Bridges: Fostering dialogue between civilizations.
By inspiring increased international engagement with Africa, FOCAC injects fresh momentum into the continent’s development.
Aligned with FOCAC’s vision, our company participated in the 4th China-Africa Economic and Trade Expo in Changsha (June 14, 2025). Hosted by the Belt and Road SME Platform and Changsha Enterprise Service Center, the event centered on:
“Linking Global Innovation Resources to Empower Hunan Enterprises Overseas.”
Key activities included policy workshops, international trade rule analyses, and global market opportunity sessions—all designed to streamline overseas expansion for SMEs.
Africa’s diverse mineral resources offer immense potential for industrial partnerships:
| Category | Key Minerals | Global Significance |
|---|---|---|
| Precious Metals | Gold, Diamonds | Jewelry, electronics, high-value markets |
| Battery Metals | Cobalt, Copper | EV batteries, electrical infrastructure |
| Industrial Minerals | Chromium, Manganese, Bauxite | Steel production, aerospace, construction |
| Energy & Agriculture | Oil, Gas, Phosphates | Energy security, fertilizer supply chains |
Critical Applications:
Cobalt powers the electric vehicle revolution.
Phosphates underpin global food security.
Chromium enhances high-performance alloys.
Conclusion
FOCAC’s 25-year legacy demonstrates how shared vision and pragmatic cooperation can transform economies. As Chinese enterprises expand into Africa, leveraging mineral synergies and institutional frameworks will unlock win-win growth. We remain committed to bridging resources and innovation across continents.
