Corporate Council on Africa (CCA) is a U.S.-based trade association focused on connecting American and African business interests. Established in 1993, it acts as a neutral intermediary that links member firms with the government and business leaders necessary to do business in Africa. The organization represents a broad mix of members—from smaller companies to multinational corporations—across sectors such as agribusiness, energy, finance, health, ICT, infrastructure, security, tourism, and trade facilitation. It is headquartered in Washington, DC. CCA provides sector- and country-specific working groups, high-level events, conferences, customized member services, trade missions, and advocacy programs to support member activities and to improve Africa's trade and investment climate while raising Africa's profile in the U.S. business community. Recent activity includes participation in IMF and World Bank Spring Meetings in 2026, including a Washington, DC-based roundtable where an agreement between government and business leaders was signed, reflecting ongoing U.S.-Africa engagement.
