Africa Rising Summit IX 2012
WHY ATTEND?
The 9th Biennial Leon H. Sullivan Summit is the premiere event on the continent of Africa bringing together government and corporate communities for the benefit of the African people. Summit IX will re-connect the displaced Diaspora and generate solution-oriented dialogue while discovering the tools to empower businesses, entrepreneurs and the African youth while instilling the Sullivan Principles as necessary standards of corporate and government responsibility.
The increased attention Africa has received over the last decade has turned the continent into a renewed area of interest for those seeking alternatives to traditional investments. With an abundance of natural resources, an emerging eco-tourism market and the capabilities to produce renewable energies, how are local and multinational corporations giving back and handling the rapid expansion of African economies? Attendees will have direct access to the powerful ideas that are shaping the future economies of Africa and spurring the movement to provide the necessary human rights that all humans deserve. Whether its the right to education and modern healthcare or the right to free enterprise and free press, Summit IX will tackle the issues that stifle growth and utilize the Global Sullivan Principles to empower the African people.
Summit IX will bring together intellectuals to highlight opportunities and develop solutions in the fields of mobile technologies, healthcare access, infrastructure development, human & food security, governance & corporate responsibility and the evolution of human rights. Attendance of the 9th Biennial Leon H. Sullivan Summit is a seat among the policy makers, academia, philanthropists, both big and small business leaders and the youth of Africa. Voices will be heard, solutions will be developed and commitments will be made.
