The Financial Times held its second Africa Summit in October 2015 after breaking new ground last year in a relationship with the continent that stretches back to the paper’s opening issue more than 125 years ago.
With an African-led agenda and backed by a special report, the Summit took a look at the slowdown in commodities, asked whether capital flows are on the up, and pit new money from the likes of china against old money from Europe with a focus on East Versus West – our take on the perennial Scramble for Africa.

The second annual FT Africa Summit gathered a sell-out delegation of 300 senior attendees and an expert speaker panel of finance ministers, investors and businesses leaders from around the region.
