In January 2016, Gowling WLG’s infrastructure team, based in our Dubai office and led by partner Jonathan Brufal, closed a public private partnership (PPP) with the government of Rwanda and Trademark East Africa (TMEA) to develop the Kigali Logistics Platform, an inland logistics port designed to increase trade and boost the local economy.
Gowling WLG was hired to advise the Rwandan Ministry of Trade and Industry (MINICOM) and TradeMark East Africa (TMEA) on the signing of a concession agreement with DP World to design, build, finance and operate an integrated logistics facility in Kigali, Rwanda.
