Guinea, U.S. Strengthen Ties with $100M Deal for Digital Infrastructure
Guinea and the U.S. have strengthened ties, with a significant $100 million deal signed between Cybastion, a U.S. company, and the Guinean government in May 2025. This agreement, part of Guinea's Safe Cities project, aims to enhance digital infrastructure and equipment. The deal was facilitated by a U.S.-Guinea Executive Roundtable held in Washington, D.C., attended by high-level officials from both nations.
The roundtable, hosted by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's U.S.-Africa Business Center, marked a 'new chapter' in engagement, as noted by Guinea's Minister of Planning and International Cooperation, H.E. Ismael Nabe. He sought long-term partnerships for investment, highlighting the country's 7% growth rate, good governance, and economic momentum in key sectors, as emphasized by Minister of Finance, H.E. Mourana Soumah.
Cybastion, which recently opened a Country Office in Conakry, Guinea, is at the forefront of this collaboration. The company's $100 million deal with Guinea's Safe Cities project underscores the potential for U.S. investing in the West African nation.
The U.S.-Guinea Executive Roundtable and the subsequent $100 million deal between Cybastion and Guinea signal a promising future for bilateral trade and U.S. investing in the region.
