\u201cAfrica\u2019s investment and trade partners are rapidly evolving across the continent and the disruption of technology is impacting most sectors. At the same time, there are no dedicated platforms addressing the current and potential economic capital provided by the global African diaspora – in its diversity, differentiation and commonality. We will also ensure that African SMEs and corporates have greater visibility in the U.S. and on the global stage. Our aim is to be a leading source for data and analyses tracking these trends and business reporting across the continent and globally,\u201d according to Dr. Wilmot Allen, Founder, of VentureLift Africa.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
