The Expo 2020 Dubai 2020 (Expo2020Dubai.com) is a vast, global event connecting governments, private sector, civil society, international organizations, and the general public to celebrate new ideas, promote progress and foster cooperation. For Africa, it is an opportunity to show the world its true colours – including its innovations, business opportunities and incredible art, culture, heritage and natural beauty.
Africa is predicted to account for one-third of the global population by 2100, and Expo 2020 Dubai is expected to open up new markets, offering an unrivalled opportunity for African countries to reach international audiences, seek investments and forge new partnerships that will reinvigorate their economies.
“At APO Group, we truly believe it is our responsibility to challenge the negative narrative about Africa on the world stage,” said APO Group Founder and Chairman, Nicolas Pompigne-Mognard (www.Pompigne-Mognard.com). “It is in our DNA, and it influences all the work that we do. The African Union Commission has asked us to help them make the most of the extraordinary opportunity Expo 2020 Dubai represents for all Africans. For me, and for every single member of the APO Group family, it is an honour and a privilege to answer their call.”
Game-changing partnerships with globally renowned organizations like Bloomberg and Getty Images, alongside the pioneering work delivered by APO Group’s Public Relations division, are increasingly showing international audiences that Africa is open for business and ready for the world stage.
