Laying the Groundwork for Jobs in Africa
Laying the Groundwork for Jobs in Africa
Creating jobs where young people live is now an economic and strategic imperative. Italy’s leadership under the Mattei Plan, and the World Bank’s jobs-first approach, share a common view: regulatory clarity is a key multiplier that turns infrastructure into productive assets and allows capital to move with confidence. This event aims to bring that message to life—through evidence, practical experience, and direct testimony from investors who have seen firsthand what unlocks investment and what stalls it.
