About 35° Nord
The future of the world is in Africa
In a state of powerful and rapid transformation, Africa has been the focus of most 21st-century challenges: climate, environment and energy, population and urbanization, creation and distribution of wealth and the digitalization of economies
Africa also has all the advantages to become the new target market of world growth: a young and active population, quick adoption of new technologies, a developing economy, an abundance of natural resources and a new generation of decision-makers to name a few. These are tangible realities that will help Africa take off quickly.
