Having launched as a pop-up meet-up during UN General Assembly 2018, AFRICA HOUSE is a unique platform for change, convening a strategically curated network of policy-makers, thought leaders, business executives, entrepreneurs, and creatives to engage in results-orientated dialogue.Created by global innovator and Founder of Pangolin LLC, Meredith Ogilvie-Thompson, the HOUSE is a disruptive collective that aims to change the narrative, and shine a light on what's positive and possible about Africa now. "What's exciting at this moment – this inflection point of increased stability across all regions, better policies, improved trade and tariff structures, and global connectivity that includes even the most rural and isolated populations - is that Africans are defying tired stereotypes and taking their rightful place on a global stage," says Ogilvie-Thompson. "AFRICA HOUSE will elevate the continent's rich diversity, tell a story about progress, innovation, and creativity, and share a compelling view of why the world needs to sit up and take notice." AFRICA  HOUSE is grateful to its founding sponsors and supporters, including Africa50; African Parks; Azura Power; The Embassy of Gabon, Washington, D.C.; the GREAT Britain Campaign and the UK's Department for International Trade; Lagos Fashion Week; The Nigerian Export Promotion Council; United Bank for Africa (UBA); Access Bank; Royal Air Maroc; The Mastercard Foundation; Ideanomics Resources; the UN Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA); To:; and The Pierre Hotel.Stay tuned for a summary report of the launch, and updates about the HOUSE's next iteration!www.africahouseinternational.com
