The 10th edition of the “Makutano” forum, scheduled for November 13-15, 2024 in Kinshasa, promises to be a major event to address the challenges of transforming the DRC and Africa. Under the theme “New deal for a strong and prosperous DRC and Africa: concrete actions to transform the continent”, this forum aims to lay the foundations for a new pact, bringing together political and economic decision-makers, investors, civil society and the diaspora.
Nicole Sulu, founder of “Makutano”, underlines the importance for Africa to free itself from outdated models and build solid foundations for its economic and cultural development. This new pact aims to enable the African continent to fully exploit its local industry and play a leading role on the world stage. By promoting exchanges and dialogue between all actors in the African ecosystem, “Makutano” is establishing itself as a catalyst for change and innovation.
The program of this forum will be structured around sectoral conferences, field visits, strategic meetings with influential personalities such as former footballer Samuel Eto’o, and a “trial of Africa” hosted by writer Didier Mumengi. These various highlights aim to offer concrete and measurable solutions in the areas of infrastructure, SMEs and industry, thus helping to stimulate the economic potential of the DRC and Africa.
Since its creation in 2014, the “Makutano” network has been able to establish a climate of trust and dialogue between private and public actors, promoting the development of the African continent. Through its annual forum and its numerous initiatives, “Makutano” has brought together hundreds of leading African decision-makers, thus helping to strengthen business relations and stimulate innovation in Africa.
Through its actions and positions, “Makutano” embodies the vision of a dynamic, prosperous and united Africa, ready to meet the challenges of the 21st century and assert itself on the international scene. By promoting dialogue and cooperation between all actors on the continent, this network contributes to the emergence of a strong Africa that is resolutely turned towards the future.
