The Africa Prosperity Network (APN) officially launched the third edition of the Africa Prosperity Dialogue (APD) in Accra, Ghana.
The 2025 edition, themed “Delivering Prosperity through Infrastructure: Invest- Integrate- Connect,” will take place from January 30th to February 1st, 2025, at the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC).
A Platform for Leaders and Action
This annual event serves as a premier platform for African business, political, and institutional leaders.
The focus will be on developing and implementing actionable plans to expedite the implementation of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). Achieving a single market across Africa is seen as a critical driver of shared and sustainable prosperity for the continent’s 1.4 billion people.
Celebrating Progress and Looking Ahead
The event will culminate in a celebratory ceremony, the Africa Prosperity Champions Awards, at the Fantasy Dome on the third day.

He expressed his gratitude to the organizers, partners, and participants who have contributed to the event’s success. He emphasized the collective responsibility of all stakeholders in translating discussions into concrete actions.
“Africa’s journey to prosperity is a collective endeavor,” Dr. Adam said, “and each of us plays a pivotal role in shaping this trajectory. The launch of the third edition of the Africa Prosperity Dialogues serves as a timely platform to reaffirm our commitment to advancing prosperity and development across the continent.”
