Unlocking Finance for Livestock SMEs across Africa
Speakers
Core message
Join us on 30 April for the webinar, 'Unlocking Finance for Livestock SMEs across Africa' sponsored by GLAD/ILRI and implemented by AgThrive.
Livestock receive low investment in Africa despite creating significant GDP, livelihoods and growth potential. How can we chart the way forward for business and development?
This webinar is for anyone interested in livestock sector development in Africa, from donors, investors, researchers and policymakers, to Small to Medium Enterprise (SME) livestock businesses in need of finance, including entrepreneurs, value chain actors and women and youth-led livestock businesses.
We will:
-
Launch and disseminate findings from the new Multi-Country Livestock Investor Landscaping Report by AgThrive and ILRI, providing insights on livestock investment trends, financing mechanisms and opportunities for SME livestock businesses.
-
Provide insights on historical patterns of livestock investing in SSA with an emphasis on Nigeria, Malawi, Zambia, Tanzania and Kenya.
-
Provide a practical session for livestock SMEs including guidance on accessing finance, understanding investor priorities and developing investor-ready materials.
Register your attendance here!
This event builds on the success of the previous Kenya-focused webinar 'Fostering Investments in Sustainable Livestock Solutions: An Exploration of the Kenyan Livestock Investor Landscape + Advice on Accessing Finance' but expands its reach to include the entire continent.
