The inaugural New York Forum Africa was about recognizing Africa’s economic achievements and understanding the opportunities for business and investors. The New York Forum Africa 2013 focuses on the hard work to make the opportunities reality: how do we implement an action plan, what are the concrete next steps? The business and political leaders that gather in Libreville will engage in intense, collaborative sessions to draw up a road map – for individual businesses as well as national policy makers – as a guide and spur to action.

“a road map – for individual
