The Host

AFRICA PROSPERITY NETWORK (APN)

The Africa Prosperity Network (APN) secretariat is based in Accra, Ghana, and registered as a company limited by guarantee under the country's Companies Act, 2019 (Act 992). The purpose of the Africa Prosperity Network is to create a vibrant network of businesses operating in Africa, and Pan-African thought leaders. Our purpose is to deepen trade and investments across Africa, in line with the African Union’s agenda to build the world's largest single market in Africa. We will provide a common platform where the concerns, challenges, ideas, and opportunities of Africa's private sector can be discussed and organised for action. We offer a platform where leaders in business, politics, etc., can think, plan and work together to champion the “Africa Agenda for Action” – which is creating sustainable prosperity for all Africans by Africans, both at home and abroad. The secretariat will foster partnerships with credible institutions and governments to convene political, business and social sector leaders including associations each year to lead a continental action for prosperity through dialogues. The Africa Prosperity Dialogues, APN’s flagship event, will be an annual platform for this network of political, business and social sector leaders to deliberate on a sustainable way to implement the AU's Agenda 2063 for building the Africa we want, in a way that provides for quick wins for the people of Africa.
