Our Mission

To formalise the existing network of influential international and Cameroonian business leaders
committed to economic growth, corporate citizenship and to the principles of transparency and good
governance; and to use the collective wisdom and influence of that network, locally and internationally,
in support of:

• The private investor community in Cameroon;
• Investors and other partners seeking to do business with or in Cameroon;
• Cameroon’s initiatives in attracting foreign investors.

Historically, people of various professions have banded together in common purpose, and so it was with the private personnel services industry in California. The Cameroon Association of Professionals was initially formed in 1999 as the Southern California Employment Agencies Association and incorporated as a non-profit corporation on February 18, 1947.
