Aligning Profitability With Development

Africa50 was established by African governments and the African Development Bank to help bridge Africa’s infrastructure funding gap by  facilitating project development, mobilizing public and private sector finance, and investing in infrastructure on the continent. Africa50 focuses  on medium- to large-scale projects that have a significant development impact and that provide an appropriate risk-adjusted return to investors.
