DAY 1-5 GBF AFRICA Africa - The Final Investing Frontier

The flow of foreign investment into Africa has been slower than expected. In 2020, with the onset of the pandemic, it almost dried up. In this session, we look at how countries can build back better and stronger, by asking African policy-makers and Emirati investors what the continent can do to attract more investment than ever before. What does a good investment look like? And which new policies are needed to incentivize entrepreneurship on the continent?
