Description: See what happened at the ACF 2023 in Luxor, Egypt
The COVID-delayed African Currency Forum (ACF) finally took place two years and a few months later than originally planned in Luxor, Egypt from 15-18 January, attracting 305 delegates from 46 countries, including 25 central banks and state printworks from Africa itself.
This Forum was hosted by the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) Printing House on behalf of the Association of African Banknote and Secure Document Printers (AABSDP), whose eight members are the government security printers of Egypt, Morocco, Algeria, Nigeria, Sudan, Zimbabwe, the Democratic Republic of Congo and South Africa.
The attraction of the ACF is its unique mix of technical and industry presentations in plenary sessions, with a specific focus on developments across the African continent, combined with numerous social events where business and industry discussions continue in an informal and relaxed environment and friendships are established.
