AFSIC: Africa to showcase new investment opportunities

Speakers at the upcoming AFSIC – Investing in Africa forum will unpack the increasing global investment momentum into Africa’s growing public and private sectors and highlight new growth opportunities across the continent.

This, as a record number of over 200top level speakers and panellists, are confirmed for the forum on 10 and 11 October in London. It includes a huge range of Africa’s most important investors, dealmakers and business leaders.

Organisers say the AFSIC 2022 agenda remains investment focused, with several of the most experienced and successful asset management firms investing in Africa sharing insights into where smart money is investing.

New additions to AFSIC agenda

Furthermore, business leaders running some of Africa’s most exciting growth start-ups will showcase new investment opportunities, with focused streams in banking, informed investing, building, fintech innovation, sustainable growth, agriculture, and power.

With British International Investment and FSD Africa heading up the sponsor line-up, the conference will also feature quickfire sessions showcasing a sample of the most interesting businesses listed on the award-winning AFSIC African Investments Dashboard which has already  attracted over 1000 investor-ready projects.

Structured regional country-specific investment summits are an exciting new addition to the AFSIC 2022 agenda. With the ASFIC team having built a trusted network of contacts through their Africa Business Community, interest in AFSIC attendance is said to be high.

AFSIC chief executive Rupert McCammon says he is excited about the potential of the forum to, once again, provide an exceptional opportunity to network with sessions offering opportunities to develop strong business relationships with investors, financial intermediaries and African business leaders. This will be through an array of presentations and panel streams, discussions, networking events, business match-making meetings and seminars.
