Africa in 2025 and Gala/ Dinner - Cairo, Egypt

Africa in 2025 is a one-day event that focuses on the in-coming year. It is where the AEF board of economists and invited experts and luminaries share their candid, bold and new perspectives including predictions for the year.

A recent surge in economic activity has set Egypt on track to achieving growth of 5.5%. However, base effects and the demand overshoot are expected to start tapering this off and its economic activity will be adversely affected by the repercussions of the war in Ukraine. Thus, growth is expected to slow down in 2023.

Egypt undertook exchange rate, monetary and fiscal measures in response to adverse global developments including soaring prices and tightening financial conditions aggravated by the war in Ukraine. Yet, these policy actions also reflect underlying structural challenges. The surge in growth is expected to slow down gradually through the in-coming year.

This meeting will garner the AEF board of economists and invited experts and luminaries share their candid, bold and new perspectives including predictions for the year with key decision makers including C-Suite executives, high profile business men and entrepreneurs and other interested stake holders engaged in Egypt’s evolving economy.
