Economic Insights Conference: The Economy Matters – 23 March 2022

We could not have predicted the current state of affairs, but the Russian war will undoubtedly impact South Africa and our planned economic recovery post COVID.

With so much at stake, is it possible to industrialise South Africa, to revive the once robust manufacturing sector, tourism, agriculture, and other large contributors to GDP? Can the Government and regulators create a conducive environment and expediate the removal of barriers that stall investment and growth.

Join our panel of experts and industry leaders as we discuss and debate our economic prospects.
