Philanthropy unlocks potential. Business helps take it further.
Today in Singapore, our DG @ElodieShami joined @IKarangwayire of @BKFoundation_ at the Business and Philanthropy Forum 2026, organised by Alliance for Good, for a panel on “Africa at the Frontier: Capital, Philanthropy and the Next Era of Growth,” moderated by Fabien Anthony of the Alliance for Good Pan-African Council.
Their conversation showed how the two work together: one invests in young people early, the other backs what they go on to build.
DG Elodie spoke of Africa’s young population as its greatest asset, and of investing in people as building human infrastructure. She traced how Imbuto Foundation has grown alongside Rwanda, from relief to resilience, and now towards self-reliance.
Looking to Africa-Asia cooperation, she described alliances between philanthropy and business as a platform for good stewardship of wealth, so that the capital we hold today builds the future we want.
