Building Bridges for Investing in Africa
Africa holds some of the world’s most dynamic opportunities for sustainable and impact-driven investment. Yet capital flows into the continent remain below potential. Building Bridges for Investing in Africa seeks to close this gap by shifting perceptions from risk to opportunity, connecting those interested by and ready to invest in Africa’s growth with those shaping it on the ground.
我们的活动旨在建立信任、提升知名度并拓展合作渠道, 将对话转化为伙伴关系,再将伙伴关系转化为资金流动 ,从而在带来财务回报的同时,产生积极的社会和环境影响。 该项目是我们自2023年以来,通过线上活动、在日内瓦举办的旗舰活动以及在非洲大陆开展的各项活动,与非洲大陆众多参与者建立的合作关系的延伸和发展。
这是一个由成员共同建立、服务于成员的项目和社区,它开放、务实,注重行动。.

The second mission in June 2024 brought leaders together for the Bridging Africa-Europe SDG Investment Summit. Over 3 days, a delegation of private sector leaders from Europe and East Africa united to strengthen bridges for sustainable investment. This inaugural Summit was a collaboration between Building Bridges, the Embassy of Switzerland in Kenya, and the United Nations in Kenya through its SDG Partnership Platform, with support from the Nairobi International Financial Centre and Equity Bank Group. It aimed to forge links and cultivate trust to enable financing and investment pathways among diverse communities, deepening European investors’ and African stakeholders’ understanding of the region’s and the continent’s sustainable investment landscape.

The first learning exchange took place in April 2023 where our team traveled to learn more about the impact investing community in Nairobi, and exchange with financial actors who are implementing new innovative solutions to support the Sustainable Development Goals. This initial learning exchange built the foundations for this Building Bridges for Investing in Africa Programme.
