Sankalp Africa East Meets West

Sankalp Africa East meets West was started with the mission of building equitable societies of the future that will leverage heavily on innovation and entrepreneurship. Sankalp Africa East Meets West is being hosted on July 18th 2022 from 2 PM to 8 PM in Accra, Ghana.

For more than a decade, Sankalp has successfully built regional ecosystems for India and Africa, connecting international players with local organizations and entrepreneurs. We understand the importance of bringing together diverse stakeholders at the intersection of business and development, and the impact this has for early stage businesses to be able to grow.

AFTER SUCCESSFULLY CATALYZING REGIONAL ECOSYSTEMS IN INDIA AND IN EAST AFRICA, THE SANKALP TEAM INTENDS TO CREATE VALUE FOR THE WEST AFRICAN ECOSYSTEM BY:

  • Creating a unique entrepreneur-centric platform to drive sustainable development through business in West Africa
  • Stitching together both anglophone and francophone West Africa through exploring common challenges, and unique opportunities across the region
  • Providing better connections, opportunities for learning, and platforms for exchange across East and West Africa

As Sankalp works towards establishing a West Africa regional summit, we will begin by hosting smaller in-person events in Ghana in 2022; as well as make a concerted effort to build the East Meets West narrative in our upcoming virtual Sankalp Global Summit 2022 and Sankalp Africa Summit 2023.

Our first convening will be in Accra Ghana, along the sidelines of the ANDE West Africa Regional Conference.

Time: 10:00 AM EST – 4:00 PM EST

Location: Accra, Ghana

Date: Monday, July 18, 2022
