Africa: Past, Present, Future

Africa’s strong commitment and progress towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) over the past decades have resulted in exponential growth and have holistically improved livelihoods. With the SDGs in sight, the narrative for Africa is shifting from one of 'deficits' and 'gaps' to one of prospects, opportunities, ventures and creativity.

Today, Africa is an emergent market that is home to 17% of the world’s population and has consumer spending of over $4.1 trillion. Already business environments, investment, and mutually beneficial partnerships and opportunities are improving and growing. Together, these elements present countless prospects for both the present and the continent’s future. However, it is worth noting that the future is not withstanding obstacles as extraordinary challenges threaten to paralyze achievements and reverse gains. Radical and innovative efforts need to be made to build the best future and to ensure Africa’ continuous prosperity.

To better understand and explore Africa’s challenges and opportunities, Oxford’s Africa Business Forum 2021 will draw on the experience of leaders and experts working in and across the continent to share learnings from the past, present successes, future ideas and initiatives for Africa. Together we will reflect on Africa's Past, Present and Future.

Clear Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) targets and measurements have become an increasingly important part of fundraising as investors seek to align their portfolios with sustainable growth. For a continent boasting ample natural resources, this presents a significant opportunity for Africa’s green energy sector. However, renewable does not always equal sustainable and developing and articulating ESG metrics can pose a significant challenge to projects as they prepare investment rounds. In this webinar, Invest Africa and DLA Piper will discuss ESG best practice in African renewable energy as part of our initiative to drive global investors towards critical projects across the continent.

Sudan is currently a country in transition. In 2019, a popular uprising created the momentum for significant political and economic changes, but there remain daunting challenges on the road to democracy and prosperity.

Attracting investment in sectors that can be part of sustainable global supply chains of materials and minerals essential for the country’s economic transformation requires a stable and predictable investment climate, and a vibrant civil society protected by democratic institutions.

More than ever, there is the need for meaningful dialogue between civil society, Sudanese businesses, and international investment communities.

The importance of creating such a multi-stakeholder dialogue during Sudan’s political transition is fundamental for the protection of human rights and the establishment of ethical governance practices.
