Watch the presentation by Dr. James Mworia, CEO & Managing Director of Centum Investment Company Plc and Carole Kariuki, CEO of KEPSA on the Main Stage Inspire at Africa Forward | Inspire & Connect, an event co-organised by Bpifrance. The speakers emphasize the urgent need for Africa to transition from a continent of untapped potential to a global leader through industrialization, digital job creation, and green manufacturing. By building integrated platforms and fostering strategic partnerships between the private sector and government, they aim to reduce fragmentation and drive sustainable economic growth. Ultimately, they call for collective action to transform Africa’s value chains, ensuring the continent processes its own resources and provides meaningful opportunities for its youth.
