Harvard Business School Africa Business Conference

Submitted by CheetahBlogger on January 16, 2010 – 5:55 pmNo Comment

ABC2010.pgCheetahs out there:

The 12th Annual Harvard Business School Africa Business Conference is around the corner!  This year’s conference will focus on the theme “A Continent Comes of Age: Defining a New Era in African Business.”

Over the last decade, Africa has gained tremendous ground in terms of economic growth and political stability, but there still remain many challenges to address.  In 2010, over 15 African countries celebrate their 50th anniversaries of independence and the World Cup comes to South Africa.  At the same time, several of Africa’s most persistent challenges continue to attract international attention.

With this in mind, discussion at the 2010 Harvard Business School Africa Business Conference will focus on answering questions such as:

  • In what sectors and geographies will businesses find growth opportunities in the next decade?
  • What are the biggest challenges facing African businesses and how can they be successfully addressed?
  • What specific policies and actions should governments pursue to support African business and development?

Throughout the conference,  distinguished keynote speakers and panelists will offer their perspectives on these questions, and we hope that you will take the opportunity to engage them and your fellow conference participants in meaningful discussions about defining a new era in African business.

HURRY UP and get your tickets!

This is the kind of events no cheetah out there should miss!

See you all there!
