In this episode of the Roots to Food Podcast, host Ovidiu Bujorean, CEO of OviBees Ventures, speaks with Dr. Frannie Léautier, Senior Partner and CEO of SouthBridge Investments, about the opportunities and challenges of mobilizing African capital for investment across the continent.
Their discussion focuses on the role of domestic wealth in financing infrastructure, supporting economic growth, and reducing dependence on external funding. Dr. Léautier reflects on the potential of pension funds, institutional investors, and other sources of capital to contribute to Africa's development agenda, while highlighting the reforms and partnerships needed to attract and sustain investment.
The conversation also explores the relationship between infrastructure and economic development, the importance of strong institutions, and what it will take to create an environment where African capital can be effectively deployed to support long-term growth.
