Companies like MTN, UBA, Shoprite, Oando, Ecobank, Dangote, Equity Bank, to name a few, have been shining examples of pan-African success; homegrown brands that are re-writing the African story, and helping transform and integrate the continent through their cross-border investments. Because of these companies, intra-Africa FDI – ‘Africans investing in Africa’ – has seen a spectacular growth, never before seen in the continent’s history. Without a doubt, these companies are champions of Africa’s emergence. They are ‘AfroChampions. The AfroChampions Initiative is a thorough platform of activities and projects all aimed at promoting African homegrown companies and supporting the emergence of large African multinationals able to contribute to the development of the continent. So that the AfroChampions of today inspire the AfroChampions of tomorrow.
