By listing details of capital raising opportunities on the African Investments Dashboard prior to AFSIC, investors will be able to pre-arrange meetings with companies whose projects match their investment criteria. It is also advisable for business leaders attending AFSIC to spend time analyzing the investment mandates of the investors that are attending by utilizing the intuitive integrated Event and Meeting app, which opens one month prior to AFSIC.

Many of the leading investors in Africa are based outside Africa. The UK provides a convenient location for these investors to congregate, and also provides a convenient hub for African companies to convene from different regions across the African continent.
