About this Event

Join the Africa Business Club at the UC Berkeley Haas School of Business for the 2026 Haas Africa Business Forum, a flagship gathering convening founders, investors, policymakers, and global leaders to examine Africa’s evolving business landscape.

This year’s theme, “Policy, Innovation, and Infrastructure: Shaping a Sustainable Future for African Entrepreneurship,” explores how enabling regulation, technological advancement, and foundational infrastructure can unlock scalable, inclusive growth across the continent.

The Forum will feature distinguished speakers from across Africa and the global diaspora, offering perspectives across sectors including finance, technology, infrastructure development, public policy, and venture capital.

Through keynote addresses, fireside chats, and panel discussions, participants will engage in forward-looking conversations on how Africa can build resilient institutions, attract long-term capital, and translate innovation into sustainable economic impact.
