TIGC
Africa is open for business. We help you navigate the complexity.
Leveraging Africa's Potential
The African continent is the epitome of complexity. There are pockets of excellence and innovation, and areas of under-development.
The continent is characterised by grand challenges and wicked problems - the types of issues that need multiple stakeholders to come together to begin to address them.
But challenges bring opportunities, and with the right partner to help you to understand the market, the people, and the operating environment, phenomenal things are possible. There is significant untapped potential across the continent.
THE OPPORTUNITY
GDP annual growth rates range from 1 to 8 percent across countries and regions. The population, currently at 1,3 billion people, is projected to grow to over 2 billion by 2050, with half of the population younger than 25; Economic hubs are found throughout the continent - in mining, manufacturing, technology, finance and innovation.
With growing economic and political centres of cooperation and influence, Africa is a continent of opportunity.
OUR TEAM
