    Mark Cutis, Jay Ireland, Kola Karim, Ben Kruger, Vimal Shah, June Sarpong, Nick Williams, Paul Links, Sandra, Tarek

    This panel of experts from institutions including Shoreline Energy, Standard Bank, and the Abu Dhabi Investment Council evaluates Africa's projected status as the world's second-fastest growing region, driven by rapid urbanization and a massive $2 trillion infrastructure gap. Participants advocate for a strategic shift toward patient capital with 10 to 15-year horizons and local partnerships to overcome critical bottlenecks in power, logistics, and SME financing. The discussion concludes that despite persistent challenges like high interest rates and bureaucratic delays, technological leapfrogging and improving governance are enabling a maturing market where agile local firms can outperform global giants.

    2014 London Summit - Urbanization: How to Build a Better City

    Taimur Hyat, David Lutton, Mary Ricks, Harry van Dorenmalen, Katie O'Reilly, Maria Athena Papathanassio, Rob Gardner, Conrad, Sandra

    This event analyzes the accelerating global urbanization trend, where cities are projected to house the majority of the population within decades while generating a virtuous cycle of economic growth through labor density and innovation. It identifies critical barriers to this expansion, including severe housing affordability crises in metropolises like London, infrastructure funding gaps, and the risks of reverse brain drain caused by high living costs. Strategic solutions presented include adopting CEO-style leadership models, leveraging public-private partnerships for infrastructure, and repurposing distressed assets to ensure sustainable, inclusive city development.
