Africa Business Convention (ABC) is a premier convening of business leaders, policymakers, investors, and entrepreneurs from across Africa and beyond, presenting a unique platform for insightful debates around the prevailing challenges confronting businesses on the continent and the emerging opportunities for investors. ABC is motivated by factors that, when combined, require a platform for engagement, extensive dialogue, deal facilitation, and tracking of Africa’s progress and prosperity.
Essentially, it is an important platform for the aggregation of Africa’s business interests, challenges, opportunities, policies, etc. that shape the continent’s productivity, business growth and profit.
The annual convention is a global event for:
- Insightful debates around the prevailing challenges confronting businesses in the continent of Africa;
- The exploration of emerging opportunities;
- Keeping abreast with global industry trends and developments;
- Showcasing worthy ideas and projects for matching investments;
- Trade promotions within Africa and with the rest of the world;
- Policy reviews and agenda-setting for Africa’s prosperity.
The annual Africa Business Convention (ABC) is a deal-centric, B2B gathering, purpose-built for governments, CEOs, investors, policymakers, innovators and high-growth entrepreneurs etc.
Individuals can request to attend the Convention; however, participation at the annual convention is designed to be by organisational representation.
So, largely, many businesses, institutions and governments send their senior decision-makers to the annual Africa Business Convention.
