DETAILS
Africa is now positioned to be the most important driver of global business with a market size opportunity of more than $3 trillion. Yet, most current forums on Africa limit their discussions to development and humanitarian issues and often fail to amplify African voices.
The launch of the Global Africa Business Initiative (GABI) in New York in September 2022 highlighted the growth trajectory and business opportunities within all sectors of African economies. The past convenings of GABI was a resounding success and demonstrated that there was a clear space to fill in advancing the role of the private sector in driving Africa's sustainable economic development for Africa and for the world.
GABI distinguished itself from other Africa focused fora by putting the private sector at the center of the discussions and the solutions. With the tagline of #Unstoppable Africa, GABI will evolve into a global platform where African and global business leaders, governments, investors and philanthropy will connect and catalyze solutions to policy, financial and business opportunities for business. Each September, GABI will hold its flagship convening in New York to take stock of progress over the year.
The core discussions at the event will revolve around four pillars:
