Despite long-standing challenges to economic growth, the nations of Africa continue to experience incremental progress. As the digital revolution makes its way across the continent, we’re exploring Africa’s economic and social outlook in Q3 of 2021 with our Africa competition and markets expert, Andreas Stargard.
