Africa Economic Summit is a Consortium Organization that brings together organizations (businesses, nonprofits, governments, academia, industry and funders) and individuals (innovators, entrepreneurs, investors, professionals and global citizens) interested in achieving sustainable economic development across Africa. Within the consortium, we bring greater awareness of who is doing what where across the African ecosystem, foster collaboration among individuals and organizations, and coordinate resources across networks to accelerate impact and prosperity throughout the continent.

One primary focus of our work is connecting Africa’s innovators and entrepreneurs with the expertise, resources and networks they need to scale their ventures. Connecting Global experts and citizens, investors, the African diaspora and consortium member organizations with Africa's innovators and entrepreneurs is a big part of how we do it.
