partners in emerging economies have pledged to help, not least by investing in the continent’s undersized infrastructures. How much have they achieved? How much remains to be done? The 2022 edition of the Forum will invite the various actors to share their views.

The Middle East Africa Economic Forum hosts Europe’s largest annual conversation on Africa’s ongoing, formidable transformation. Africans need more African goods and more African jobs. And so does the world: a strong and prosperous continent is an essential actor of the sustainable global economy we are aiming to build.

But they will only succeed if given the space to grow, innovate and conquer markets, starting with their own. It invites African and policy makers, investors, academics, civil society.
