29th Africa Business Conference at Harvard Business School
About this Event
This year’s theme responds to a pivotal moment. The models Africa has relied on for decades, from aid to multilateral frameworks to geopolitical alignments, are changing faster than the alternatives are being built, even as the continent sits at the center of every major global transition: energy, technology, and demographics. Last year’s conference established that Africa has agency in this moment. This year’s theme describes the fork it now faces: some things are being built with the ownership, capital, and leadership to last, some are bending under real pressure without breaking, and some, if conditions don’t change, will break.
We will explore how Africa can navigate this window of opportunity and turn its potential into durable outcomes, from AI and technology to infrastructure, agriculture, culture, and sports. As the largest student-run Africa-focused conference, we convene over 1,100 business leaders, policymakers, investors, and students from around the world for two days of rigorous dialogue and forward-looking insights.
Join us on February 5–6, 2027, as we turn Africa’s potential into durable outcomes.
