A path spanning Togo, Montreal and the international stage, in the service of rigorous expertise.

Dr. Komi Abalo, Ph.D.
Historian of international relations, holder of a dual doctorate from the Université de Montréal and the Université de Lorraine.
Originally from Togo and based in Montreal, Dr. Komi Abalo has built his expertise at the intersection of Africa, Europe and North America. This three-way path fosters a rare understanding of the institutional, economic and cultural dynamics that shape investment and cooperation decisions across the African continent.
Founder, principal consultant and director of Cabinet ABALO, he brings this dual academic training and cross-continental grounding to decision-makers who need to understand Africa in order to invest, cooperate or legislate more effectively.
