Radisson Blu Hotel, Bamako
01 · Façade
ACI 2000 Hamdallaye — the house from the avenue.
01
Land at BKO (Sénou). Allow time for formalities. Do not assume a New York-style ride-hailing net.
02
Take the airport road toward the city, then ACI 2000 / Hamdallaye. About 15 km, 20–25 minutes.
03
Enter at the hotel porte-cochère. SELECTMALI accreditation is in the lobby — not at a separate convention centre.
04
Plenary, Pavilion and B2B rooms are on the conference levels. Floor plans print on badges from D-1.

The instrument
Not a festival. A three-day investment instrument: policy, capital, projects, and the signatures that follow.
Opening, country briefs, sector tables. The room where Mali speaks with one voice.
Targeted meetings. The matchmaking platform opens four weeks before the Forum.
Twenty to thirty modular stands. Mali at work — not a trade-fair maze.
Day 3, 300 seats. Fundraising with protocol. Evening dress, not a party.
The room
Capital, operators, the State, the diaspora, partners. Everyone who can sign — or open the door to those who can.
Funds, corporates, DFIs. Tickets that match the Project Book, not tourism.
Malian and international operators seeking capital, offtake, or a corridor partner.
Ministries, agencies, API-Mali. B2G is a working session, not a photo line.
A capital and knowledge bridge. Named as such — not a side programme.
Four packages — Platinum, Gold, Silver, Standard — visibility that serves the Forum, not wallpaper.
The country first
Kayes, the Inner Niger Delta, Bamako as a node toward Dakar, Abidjan, Conakry and Niamey. SELECTMALI sells the country. The three days are the instrument.
Why invest in MaliWhy SelectMali
SELECTMALI puts international investors — especially American capital — in the same rooms as Malian authorities, companies, and bankable project sponsors. Three days. One purpose: meetings that sign.
Five sectors, a contemporary Mali: mining and value chains, agribusiness, energy, infrastructure, digital economy.
Targeted B2B and B2G meetings. The matchmaking platform opens four weeks before the Forum.
A reviewed project book: stage, ticket size, and the instrument actually sought.
Public and private decision-makers at one table. Letters of intent, not only speeches.
SELECTMALI in figures
Three days in Bamako, five sectors, a 300-seat gala. The orders of magnitude AmCham Mali has published.
