Abstract: The last three years have seen a growing involvement of Portuguese companies in industrial projects in sub-Saharan African countries. This participation takes different forms and degrees of intervention: from the elaboration of feasibility studies, to technical assistance projects, rehabilitation, training actions and the establishment of joint ventures with African partners. The objective of this work is to demonstrate that these interventions by national companies contribute positively to the economies of those countries, at the same time that they constitute strategic actions for the diversification of their activities in other less competitive markets in view of the foreseeable increase in competition caused by the Single Market. 1993. In the present work we show that the projects developed, within the scope of the IOC, by European companies in ACP countries have brought a positive contribution to their economies, namely through the creation of new companies, rehabilitation of existing ones, the investment made, volume of employment created, staff trained, technical assistance provided, identification and design of projects.
