Join us for an armchair discussion with Dalberg Senior Adviser Jonathan Berman as he discusses his new book, Success in Africa: CEO Insights from a Continent on the Rise. Africa is a trillion-dollareconomy, home to six of the ten fastest growing markets in the world. There are 150 billion-dollar companies in Africa. Mr. Berman will discuss the emerging African business leaders, their impact on Africa's human needs, as well as the challenges facing African and other business leaders as they maneuver through one of the most globally misperceived markets.
Jonathan Berman is a senior fellow at Columbia University's Vale Center, and senior advisor at the consulting firm Dalberg, having previously been a partner and formed Dalberg's corporate practice. Mr. Berman advises global Fortune 500 companies on entry and operations in emerging and frontier markets worldwide, focusing on the political and economic dynamics that drive shareholder value.
