This episode is recorded during DLA Piper’s Africa Week. Our panel of speakers discuss what international companies, regulators, and others, are doing to encourage long term investment and partnerships with African businesses, and what more can be done to unlock lasting value across the continent. We also hear which sectors are currently thriving in Eastern and Western Africa, and why. Finally, we look at the move towards collaboration between African-based regulators and their international counterparts, and the impact this is having.

Hosted by DLA Piper partner Adam Vause, Global Co-Chair of Compliance and Investigations. Adam speaks to Naana Frimpong – a partner in our Atlanta office and also leads DLA Piper’s US/Africa initiative. Adam also talks with Muyiwa Ogungbenro, Partner and Head of our Litigation and Regulatory Practice Group in Nigeria, and Pascal Mwanyika a Senior Associate in our Tanzania office.
