INVEST IN GABON - Visit Gabon - Celso Salles

Gabon is an upper-middle income country. The seventh largest oil producer in Africa, Gabon has long relied on oil and manganese to fuel its economic growth. In recent years, Gabon has sought to diversify its economy through the development of the tourism, agricultural, energy and pharmaceutical sectors, among others. Aware of the socio- economic benefits offered by information and communication technologies, Gabon has invested heavily since 2012 in the construction of a high-speed fiber optic network. The cost of internet access has fallen 10x since 2010, and the number of subscribers has increased by 7x over the same period.
Bordered by the forest and the sea, Gabon is a jewel of nature where elephants roam, whales swim in the ocean and hippos swim off sandy beaches. One of the most biodiverse nations on earth, and the most carbon positive, this central African state is a sanctuary for wildlife. With a coastline stretching for almost 1,000km, come and relax by the sea, live life in the forest - or dance the night away in Gabon's capital Libreville.
