Program 2014
This year’s Summit theme is “Mapping the African Infrastructure Landscape”. Developing infrastructure helps businesses thrive and economies to flourish. Investment in infrastructure accounts for over half of the recent economic growth in Africa. And the current infrastructure deficit provides many more investment opportunities, several of which the speakers will share in today’s discussions. Following the opening plenary discussions, specific sessions will address the infrastructure landscape in the oil and gas, renewable energy, impact investment and agribusiness and aquaculture industries.
