“India and the African sub-continent have a long history of productive collaboration, and with the economic stagnation that has resulted from the Covid-19 pandemic, it’s vital that we enter into bilateral discussions around potential areas of growth,” said Roberta Naicker, Group Managing Director, ABN Group.
This is the purpose behind the first-ever Virtual Indo-Africa Summit, which will be held online (on Hopin) from 04-06 November. The event will highlight opportunities for collaboration within finance, geopolitics, infrastructure, pharma, technology and communication.
