The Africa CEO Forum, scheduled for May 14 and 15, is convening under the theme: “Scale or Fail: Why Africa Must Embrace Shared Ownership.”
The forum is expected to focus on the need for African industries to combine capital, infrastructure, and markets in order to compete effectively on a global scale.
Business executives, policymakers, and investors from across Africa are expected to attend the high-level gathering in Rwanda’s capital city.
