AISCR FLAGSHIP EXECUTIVE MASTERCLASS

December 10, 2026 | 1 Day | Live Online

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Africa is one of the world’s most dynamic long-term growth frontiers, driven by a population of over 1.4 billion, rapid urbanization, rising middle-class consumption, AfCFTA integration momentum, and ongoing infrastructure modernization. Opportunities span manufacturing, logistics, retail, pharmaceuticals, energy, agribusiness, and digital services. Yet market entry failures remain common. Investors frequently underestimate regulatory complexity, informal distribution systems, infrastructure variability, currency exposure, partner governance risk, and institutional fragmentation, often entering with product strategy but without supply chain strategy.  This Executive Intensive provides a structured, supply-chain-centric market entry framework to improve success probability and reduce structural risk.
