Join us on July 17th, 2024, from 18:00 to 21:30 at the IESE Barcelona South Campus Auditorium for a discussion on "Closing the Infrastructure Gap in Africa".  

This event co-hosted with MDE Business School, our associated business school in Abidjan, will be a great opportunity to meet senior executives from Ivory Coast, and get insights on the opportunities that the big African infrastructure gap presents for foreign investors.  We will also delve into the pivotal role of multilateral institutions and cross-border partnerships in financing and mitigating risks associated with infrastructure development in Africa.

With a keynote address delivered by Sameh Shenouda, Chief Investment Officer at the Africa Finance Corporation (a pan-african multilateral institution dedicated to funding infrastructure investments), followed by a panel of experienced investors in African infrastructure, we expect this session to deliver insightful perspectives and foster valuable connections for  infrastructure development in Africa.

The event will conclude with a networking cocktail in the South Campus garden area from 20:15 to 21:30, providing an opportunity for further discussion and connection among attendees.
