India's entrepreneurial landscape is thriving. With a staggering count of 160,000 new ventures, India ranks as the third-largest startup hub globally. These startups have garnered a cumulative valuation of $450 billion.
Six years since inception, the IAEF has emerged as the go-to platform that connects entrepreneurs and investors who are active along the India-Africa corridor. These dynamic ecosystems and subsystems have much in common, and much to gain from interacting.
Africa is the last economic frontier with a projected GDP of $30Trillion by 2050. This growth is expected to be driven by improved governance, increased foreign direct investment, and a growing middle class. The youth population is booming, with over 60% of Africa’s population under the age of 25. This demographic dividend could fuel economic growth as more young people enter the workforce.
Within a short period of founding, the India Africa Entrepreneurship Forum has evolved into a community of trusted individuals who aspire to shape the future of India-Africa economic corridor.
Our periodic meetings and exchanges have resulted in cross border investments, joint ventures, strategic partnerships, mergers and acquisitions, CXO hirings and outsourcing agreements. Our Events are open, informal and therefore deeply connecting.
They forge long term relationships and encourage personal bonding.
As we look forward, we aim to expand our presence in all major clusters of economic activity across Africa – serving startups and established businesses alike.
