The Covid-19 shock upended the African growth model, with the short-term drivers of growth shifting towards government consumption as supply-chain severance disrupted industry. However, did the pandemic change the face of the growth model over the longer term, too? Covid-19 served as a catalyst to lower the barriers to financial inclusivity, cashless transactions, and technological advancement, but the ripple effects of the pandemic extend beyond the services sector. Delving into the more granular details of the sectoral outlook, we investigate which subsectors may emerge as long-term winners and which ones might be left behind in the post-Covid world.

We will be repeating the same webinar to cater for the difference in time zones between the Americas, APAC and EMEA:

• EMEA – Tuesday 20th April | 10:00 BST (11:00 SAST)
• Americas – Tuesday 20th April | 16:00 EDT
• APAC – Wednesday 21st April | 10:00 HKT
