Euvin Naidoo on investing in Africa
Euvin Naidoo wants to change your
mind about Africa. Armed with facts, figures and a forward-looking outlook, he
conveys a nuanced picture of a continent that's large, diverse and full of
potential, with stabilizing economies and business growth. Speaking at TED in a
personal capacity, he offers persuasive reasons why the continent's challenges
should be reframed as opportunities, and why investing in Africa can make great
business sense.
A third-generation South African,
Naidoo spent four years as a consultant with McKinsey & Co., and holds an
MBA from Harvard, where he currently sits on the Board of Admissions. As a
banker and venture capitalist, he focuses on acquisition finance and
private-equity transactions for emerging markets in Latin America and Africa.
He now is President and CEO of the South African Chamber of Commerce in America
(SACCA), a position which allows him to promote entrepreneurship and business
investment throughout Africa.
