Agriculture
The Agriculture industry in Africa is poised to hit a trillion dollars by 2030 as posited by the African development Bank, however, this industry that should ensure food security on the continent is plaqued with a plethora of challenges, funding being a major one. Our goal is to accelerate access to capital for Agribusinesses. Some focal areas include boosting productivity interventions as well as agro exports to support balance of trade for nationals.
Infrastructure
When it comes to infrastructure in Africa, bridging the financing gap is a major challenge. The African Development Bank estimates between $130 billion and $170 billion is required for infrastructure development each year, leaving a gap of around $100 billion.
Innovative funding methods are therefore called for to meet these crucial infrastructure needs — with, for example, nearly 600 million people in sub-Saharan Africa lacking access to grid electricity and a 50 million housing unit deficit as posited by the World Bank.
Digital Innovation
A digital revolution is rapidly unfolding across the African continent. A combination of factors is driving this surge, creating a landscape brimming with potential across the economy, government and business. The key factors are propelling Africa’s digital transformation initiatives include increased internet penetration, mobile connectivity and a tech savvy generation. As a continent with the most youthful population, digital innovation and technology presents an opportunity for unprecedented economic turnaround for the continent.
Alternative Energy
Nearly 600 million people in sub-Saharan Africa lack access to grid electricity. Today’s global energy crisis has underscored the urgency, as well as the benefits, of an accelerated scale-up of cheaper and cleaner sources of energy. Africa has the world’s lowest levels of per capita use of modern energy. As its population and incomes grow, demand for modern energy expands by a third between 2020 and 2030.
Solar PV – already the cheapest source of power in many parts of Africa – outcompetes all sources continent-wide by 2030. Renewables, including solar, wind, hydropower and geothermal account for over 80% of new power generation capacity to 2030. Indeed alternative energy will play a key role in Africa’s rapid economic transformation. The possibilities can only be imagined!
