Webinar | ANF Presents: Another scramble for Africa? Unpacking narratives on Business in Africa
Why are global brands the heroes of African business stories? When Twitter opened its first African office in Ghana, it made headlines, even though Ghana has +500 tech companies that have a story to tell. And why is there so little written about young people in business in the continent? 70% of sub-Saharan Africa is under the age of 30, yet they were only mentioned in 8.1% of business stories in 2021.
Worth a conversation? We think so.
