African Economic Development Solutions
African Economic Development Solutions (AEDS) builds economic, community, and social wealth in African immigrant communities in the United States by providing culturally grounded support and services to businesses, leaders, and collaborators. In 2025, recognizing the need for culturally specific business development services across the country, AEDS expanded to Oregon. Our Oregon location builds on our legacy of supporting African immigrant-owned businesses and provides the technical assistance, resources, and cultural intelligence needed to thrive in a competitive environment.
