Tanzania's Opportunity to Strengthen Investment Position through Africa50

TLDR

• Africa50’s emphasis on project preparation may therefore be one of the most important shifts in Africa’s development approach.
• Africa50’s model seeks to use public resources as a catalyst to attract larger pools of private investment through better project preparation and risk-sharing mechanisms.
• However, Africa50’s most important contribution may be changing how governments view infrastructure itself.
• For Tanzania, President Samia’s inauguration of the Africa50 Forum provides an opportunity to strengthen its position as an investment destination.
• Africa50 should not be judged by conferences held or memoranda signed.
