In dieser Ausgabe

The Dec 2023 / Jan 2024 issue of FORBES AFRICA is an action-packed compilation of all the news and newsmakers from Africa. The 2023 Person of the Year is an illustrious economist and banker known for his successful strategies for trade and growth on the continent. We go from bankers to wealth forecasters, and sugar farmers to the informal traders who are the heartbeat of our economies. The spurt of backroom rentals in the townships, innovations in the sugar industry and the important topic of whether women are safe in the metaverse are great reads. And then, as we head towards 2024, we have an entire segment devoted to fashion ideas and a gift guide for the festive season. Also in this issue, we have an extra section devoted to Kenya’s 60th birthday and its march ahead as an East Africa giant: with insights on SEZs, fintech, tourism and startups. All this and more entrepreneur lessons in the must-have issue of FORBES AFRICA, on stands now!
