Following the style and format of last year’s very successful event, this year Economist Conferences will again convene senior corporate and government speakers to discuss...
- What is needed to ensure continued and accelerated growth?
- How should businesses adapt their strategies to serve the second economy?
- Is the brain-drain over?
- Will revamped parastatals bring additional economic growth?
- Getting the logistics and infrastructure right for business
Business in South Africa has never looked stronger. The economy is stable and growing. There are increased signs of interest from foreign investors. Yet there are still challenges, from the skills shortage in the workforce to gaps in infrastructure. President Thabo Mbeki has made it a priority to stimulate and accelerate growth. This will call for new partnerships and new business strategies, particularly to serve the second economy.
Key to South Africa’s continuing growth and prosperity is the President’s accelerated growth strategy. What are the key factors that will enable it to provide maximum benefit for South Africa’s business community and population in general? This is just one of the overarching themes driving debate at the Roundtable.
