This is Africa and the Emerging Markets Private Equity Association (EMPEA), are pleased to present this year's annual Private Equity in Africa Summit.
 
Against the backdrop of a slowing global economy and increasingly constrained development spending, the private sector is now recognised to lie at the heart of driving Africa’s economic transformation. On the back of business friendly reform, investor interest in the region is soaring, with FDI levels at their highest ever.

Harnessing such trends for domestic private sector development will be essential to realising Africa’s potential. This one day event will critically examine the role of private equity in supporting and accelerating private sector development across Africa, and the true return potential of the continent.

Featuring keynote insights from:

Arunma Oteh, 
Director General, 
Securities and Exchange Commission, Nigeria   
  

Gen. Wesley

Strategic Advisor,
