On 10 February 2025 UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD) Secretary-General Rebeca Grynspan, launched the Economic Development in Africa Report 2024 in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, where she highlighted key findings on strengthening African economies’ resilience to global trade risks.
Cascading crises, including COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine, have hit the continent hard, exposing vulnerabilities linked to foreign market reliance, volatile commodity exports, high debt, and weak infrastructure.
The report introduces a new framework analyzing risks across economic, governance, connectivity, social, energy, and climate dimensions. It stresses the need for economic diversification, stronger intra-African trade, strategic infrastructure investments, and innovative financial tools to build resilience.

A sad home being surrounded by development. Some people will just not give up their lives because someone else wants them to... I have a huge respect for the woman who is choosing to stick it out and live here. Ballard, WA
In November 2024, the BCCK supported Scottish Development International (SDI) in bringing 12 Scottish food & drink companies to Korea.
The BCCK supported SDI in organizing for Hyundai Department Store, Homeplus, Conrad Seoul, Kurly and Wine & More to invite the companies to tour their stores and meet with their management.
80 Korean buyers and influencers came to meet with the Scottish Food & Drink companies in an exclusive session at the British Embassy Seoul, followed by a Scottish-themed reception at the Ambassador’s Residence for 100 guests. Guests were treated to performances by a bagpiper, a Scottish-themed buffet and mixologist-made cocktails featuring alcohol from Scotland. The event featured speeches by HMA Colin Crooks LVO, British Ambassador to South Korea, and Neil Mclnnes, Head of Southeast Asia / APAC Lead for Consumer Industries of SDI.
Scottish Development International and the Scottish companies also had their own booth at COEX Food Week 2024.
BCCK sincerely thanks all attendees and supporters for contributing to the success of this project. Your enthusiasm and collaboration made this journey a meaningful experience.
