Forbes Africa Magazine - October - November 2022

In this issue

The 11th anniversary issue of FORBES AFRICA is a special one! For the first time, we bring you the views of the wealth advisors, the financial professionals working behind the scenes to guide the continent’s billionaires and high-net-worth individuals to make the right investment decisions and hence drive progress and growth. We honor the keepers of these vaults, who specialize in wealth advisory and management services, bringing views from South Africa, East Africa and West Africa. Another interesting story is about why medicinal mushrooms are the next big wellness trend, and why the market is really booming. It’s a steep learning curve for most farmers. Read also about Rwanda’s approach to handling human-animal conflict through inclusivity and investment – the white rhinos at the Akagera National Park are proof! To celebrate our 11th birthday, we have rounded up a team of African footballers who we believe have been the best from the continent since 2011. Through rain, shine or Covid-19, we look at the survivors and thrivers who have been fronting some of South Africa’s coolest young startups. Read also our exclusive interview with Melinda French Gates, one of the most powerful advocates for women and girls in the world and co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which has, over the last 10 years, spent at least $10 billion to benefit sub-Saharan Africa. We also speak to director Gina Prince-Bythewood, who tells us more about The Woman King, shot in South Africa. All this and more in the must-grab October/November 2022 issue of FORBES AFRICA!
