Wharton’s Africa Business Forum

Wharton Africa Student AssociationThe Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania will convene a 1-day conference on November 11 in Philadelphia. Africa: Building New Partnerships, Impacting the Global Economy features panel sessions on a slew of NextBillion-related topics: consumer goods, private equity, information technology, housing markets, and more. Keynote speakers include Apex Capital’s Alan Patricof.

While I realize that this conference will be held on a Saturday, it only costs $50 to attend ($65 at the door) and it’s being held in the City of Brotherly Love. Talk about a perfect storm.Unfortunately, I won?t be able to attend myself. If you?re planning to be there, and would like to have your work featured on NextBillion.net, contact us about guest blogger opportunities. It worked well for Rhys; it can work for you too.
