In this panel discussion recorded at the Munk School of Global Affairs, we explore how Development Finance Institutions are stepping up to support underfunded markets across Africa, driving private investment, pioneering new industries, and bolstering long-term economic resilience amid shrinking traditional capital flows.
Panelists:
Dr. Moussa Blimpo (Moderator), Assistant Professor, Economic Inequality and Societies, Munk School of Global Affairs & Public Policy, University of Toronto
Foster Awintiti Akugri, Head of Africa Business & Expansion, The Innovation Village; Technical Consultant, International Trade Centre (Accra/Kampala)
Dr. Mariam Momodu, Corporate Associate, Dentons (Toronto)
Join us as our experts discuss innovations in DFI strategies and the critical question: How can these institutions adapt to ensure their interventions continue to promote sustainable growth across the continent?
