With a focus on venture capital, this panel aims to explore what risk assessment looks like in this new economic context. How do investors balance the high-risk, high-reward nature of startup investments in Africa?
This discussion will centre on why Japan is increasingly interested in Africa’s growth potential and startup ecosystem, and how funds and startups can effectively collaborate with Japanese organisations.
The keynote will explore the historical context of global economic development and its relevance to Africa's current economic landscape. By drawing parallels between Africa's present state and the historical economic conditions of now-developed nations/regions, the keynote aims to provide a deeper understanding of Africa's potential for growth and transformation.
In this interactive twist on the traditional fireside chat, attendees will have the unique opportunity to engage directly with Haresh Aswani, Group CEO of Tolaram. The session will be driven by audience participation, with attendees invited to submit their questions. In addition to asking a few engaging questions around the theme, the moderator will then select and pose these audience questions to Mr. Aswani, allowing for a dynamic and insightful discussion on his perspectives, experiences on the continent, why Tolaram is bullish on Africa and his vision for Africa’s future.
This session will explore the untapped potential of emerging markets across Africa that are on the brink of significant growth but have yet to attract substantial investment. The discussion will focus on identifying these high-potential markets, understanding the challenges and opportunities they present, and strategizing on how to channel investments effectively to catalyze economic development. Panelists will share insights on the factors driving growth in these regions, the role of innovation and infrastructure, and the impact of increased investment on local economies. The session aims to provide investors and policymakers with a roadmap for unlocking value in these markets.
