A F R I C A’ S F UTURE Darkness to Destiny

How the past is shaping Africa’s economic evolution

Throughout the centuries, Africa has concealed multiple secrets, waylaying and confounding the unwary. Today, as economists, politicians, experts and the cognoscenti from within and outside the continent seek to “fix” Africa and its perceived problems, the need to understand its mysteries has never been greater.

Africa Economic Forum

Africa’s Future tells the tale of Africa’s economic evolution, providing unique prisms through which to view the continent’s panoramic story – ultimately one of triumph over the influences of nature and over multiple political tragedies. It explains how Africa in effect went backwards for one and a half thousand years, from the Roman Empire to 1500 CE. Only in more recent times has Africa gradually begun to evolve and grow, to the point at which its modern and archaic economies uneasily coexist today. Modern Africa has developed diverse economic pathways to betterment – yet survivalist economies still litter the landscape. The continent’s paradox of “subsistence with many faces” is manifested in its tiny middle class, its growing numbers of rich, and the ever-greater numbers of poor expected in the future.

“Richly detailed … indispensable for anyone interested in global trends in the 21st century.” Ian Morris, author of Why the West Rules – For Now

6 March 2013, Sandton Convention Centre Johannesburg, South Africa

Duncan Clarke, acclaimed author of Africa: Crude Continent and an acknowledged expert on the economics and geopolitics of Africa, provides fresh and challenging insights into our vision of Africa’s economies and future, offering seasoned views on a continent of enormous potential which has witnessed many false dawns. As his discerning analysis shows, Africa is coveted as much by the developing empires of today as it was by other empires in the past. And as he suggests, perhaps this rich continent’s destiny can indeed be discerned from its embedded history.

Dr Duncan Clarke, Chairman & CEO, Global Pacific & Partners

What will drive Africa’s economic future to 2050? Is the prognosis for high or modest GDP growth, and will Southern Africa perform better than in the past?

Moderator: Dr Duncan Clarke 09:30 Coffee Break & Networking 10:00

Session 2: Africa’s Investment Potential & Future

Investment in Africa has risen in volume and value with an uneven spread across economic landscapes and between industries, with resource-based capital investment and FDI inflows leading the charge. A wide range of investors is now active with more partnerships in-place although competitive threats and risks remain for the future and uncertainty has increased with softening and volatility now found in the commodity price cycle.

Professor Tony Hawkins, Graduate School of Business, Zimbabwe: Correspondent, Financial Times (London), and author of Dollars, Diamonds and Development: The Political Economy of Zimbabwe after Robert Mugabe (forthcoming 2013) • Not all Southern African economies have been good

performers: why? • Constraints in integration, trade, capital and

infrastructure need to be overcome

Session 3: Resource Potential & Industry Growth

Africa’s resource base is undeveloped – in agrarian assets, land, agro-allied ventures, minerals, oil/gas and unconventional fuels, as well as in human capital. Private equity and foreign state capital has entered these diverse markets – now wider in scope and depth than before – and the emerging investment cycle is fundamental to long term economic growth trajectories over the coming decades.

to Africa’s future and economic security

Dr John Purchase, Chief Executive Officer, Agricultural Business Chamber, South Africa

• Political and economic schisms mark Africa’s past, and

some remain: will others emerge?

• More investment in agro-allied ventures could transform Africa: uneven markets shape outlook

• Will the economic growth paradigm change

fundamentally, or risk reversion to type?

• High potential exists but modernisation could pave the way to an agrarian revolution
