Connecting Middle East Capital with Africa Projects
Africa's growth and infrastructure ambitions require large-scale, long-term capital to be deployed efficiently and at speed.
In parallel, Middle Eastern SWFs, quasi-sovereigns, and strategic investors are increasingly asset-hungry, facing yield compression in their home markets and seeking scalable offshore opportunities.
The Africa Middle East Corridor will bring together the supply of capital from the Middle East, with Africa's demand for capital, skills and partnership.
GBM: Middle East is the natural convening hub for these discussions, creating a senior, deal-oriented platform where Sovereigns, SWFs, GREs and private-sector leaders from both regions can engage directly.
