Egypt 2016, Business for Africa, Egypt and the world The Africa 2016 Forum, which just concluded in Egypt, Sharm El Sheikh called for greater trust and cooperation between government and the private sector but also between African businesses to look beyond their borders for partners and opportunities. Throughout the forum, it was agreed that Africa’s long term success is underpinned by strong demographics, rapid urbanization and the digital revolution. And that responsibility and leadership to change the African continent is no longer about heads of State alone, but includes the private sector, civil society, individuals in academia as well as innovators.
