100 Influential Africans: What are the main challenges to doing business in Africa?
"It's hard to live in Africa. It's hard to pay your bills. Public transport is hard... And it's hard to run a business in Africa."
Alan got a belated Christmas surprise this year \u2013 when he found out he\u2019d been named as one of New African Magazine\u2019s list of 100 most influential Africans.
He\u2019s in good company\u2026 Senegal\u2019s Ousmane Sonko, Nigeria\u2019s President Bola Tinubu and Guinea\u2019s coup leader and president, Colonel Mamady Doumbouya, are also on the list.
But the list isn\u2019t just about politics: it also gives a nod to changemakers in business, science, sport - and to those working to improve the environment.
So in the first in a series of conversations, Alan speaks today to two young, energetic business leaders who are on the list - and are changing how money is used on the continent.
