What to expect
This year’s annual conference takes a forward-looking stance, looking at the trends that are shaping and that will shape East Africa’s private capital industry in the coming years, including growing interest in East African frontier markets such as Uganda, among others such as DRC, Rwanda, and Tanzania. The latter recognises rapidly changing global, regional, and country-specific macro contexts, which, in some cases, may necessitate a doubling down of strategies that have worked before and, in others, drawing up lessons and learnings from those that may require rethinking and retooling and moving forward as a means of adapting to a changing industry, and through the thought leadership discussions, charting the course for the next stage of private capital investing in East Africa.
Besides serving as the regional platform for knowledge sharing and thought leadership, delegates should also expect an opportunity for networking.
