In the first panel discussion of Africa 2024, we hear from the African Sovereigns and development finance leaders on their plans, priorities, and what support they need from the rest of the world to bring these developments to life.

  • What are the most exciting project opportunities in Africa? 
  • What initiatives do governments, DFIs & MDBs have in place to support social sustainability and development? 
  • How are DFI/MDB offerings complementing private sector finance, and are African sovereigns utilising this?
