Built to Last: The New Global Reality

The 5th AVCA Sustainable Investing in Africa Summit Returns to London!

The AVCA Sustainable Investing in Africa Summit has become a leading platform for investors, business leaders, policymakers and development partners to explore the evolving role of private capital in shaping Africa's sustainable future.

This year's theme, Built to Last: The New Global Reality, reflects a world being reshaped by geopolitical fragmentation, climate volatility, technological disruption and shifting economic power, with sustainability increasingly being viewed through the lens of resilience. From climate adaptation and energy security to industrialisation, human capital and economic transformation, the Summit agenda will examine how private capital can enable the development of economies and institutions that are truly built to last.

Join us and discover what it takes to build conviction, nurture resilience, and deliver long-term value through sustainable investing in Africa. For more information or to find out more about profiling opportunities, contact us at events@avca.africa
