In 2024, Rwanda attracted 32.4% more investment than in the previous year, the Rwanda Development Board (RDB) said in its recently released annual report.

"We remain dedicated to attracting over $3 billion in new investments, continuing to enhance Rwanda's reputation as Africa's premier business destination," RDB CEO Jean-Guy Afrika outlined plans for 2025.

According to Rwanda's National Strategy for Transformation 2024-2029, sustained growth will require strong investment, with private investment expected to reach 21.5% of GDP ($4.6 billion) by 2029.
