Now, the United States isn’t the only country that sees your growth as an opportunity.  And that is a good thing.  When more countries invest responsibly in Africa, it creates more jobs and prosperity for us all.  So I want to encourage everybody to do business with Africa, and African countries should want to do business with every country.

– Barack Obama

Africa is the story : The Chinese and Japanese are fighting over Africa. This is a market of a billion people and limitless natural resources.

– Dr Ahmed Heikal, Chairman and Founder of Citadel Capital.

We wouldn’t be investing as much in the rest of Africa if we didn’t believe. Africa will be the success story in the next decades…Africa is on the move and it is moving forward.

– Julian Roberts, Group Chief Executive, Old Mutual.
