Leaders from 50 nations are discussing regional security and business investments on the continent.
Much of the summit has focused on Africa's economic potential. The continent is home to six of the world's 10 fastest-growing economies.
On Tuesday, Obama announced $33 billion in commitments toward more equal economic partnerships.
Other talks focused on some of the problems still threatening the continent, including terrorism and extremism.
