Alliad launches Empowering Africa podcast to drive continent’s growth from ambition to action
The launch follows the conclusion of the 81st United Nations General Assembly (UNGA81), whose theme focused on restoring trust, managing transformation and building a United Nations that delivers for all.
Nairobi, Kenya – Alliad, the global integrated services company, has introduced its inaugural season of the Empowering Africa podcast, aiming to spotlight actionable strategies for transforming Africa's economic potential into enduring and equitable growth. The new platform convenes business leaders, entrepreneurs, and other influential figures to discuss Africa's most critical development challenges, including infrastructure, healthcare, investment, digital innovation, supply chains, and climate resilience.
The podcast's launch coincides with the conclusion of the 81st United Nations General Assembly (UNGA81), which emphasized restoring trust, managing transformation, and building a United Nations that serves all. Alliad's Global CEO Rashad Sinokrot explained that the podcast embodies the company's evolving strategy, shifting from merely conducting business in Africa to partnering with Africa.
Sinokrot emphasized that Africa's transformation necessitates transitioning from ambitions and commitments to practical action, bolstered by infrastructure, businesses, and partnerships capable of generating lasting value.
The podcast intends to provide a platform for change-makers across the continent to share their experiences while integrating African viewpoints into the global dialogue. Each episode of the first season will be hosted by a different senior Alliad executive, facilitating conversations with key players shaping Africa's economic and social development.
Season highlights include discussions led by AFEX Group CEO Ayodeji Balogun on enhancing African supply chains, Allison Worldwide Africa Managing Director Claudine Moore on Africa's investment landscape, Asante Africa Foundation CEO Geoffrey Kasangaki on youth leadership, and ENDIP International's Benjamin Ovio on fostering talent pipelines across Africa.
Alliad's explorations of these themes reflect the company's ongoing expansion across Africa, with current operations in Kenya, Uganda, Côte d'Ivoire, Rwanda, Tanzania, Angola, and Cameroon. The company's strategic vision includes potential expansion into Ghana, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Benin, Togo, and Guinea-Conakry, as part of its broader strategy of collaborating with African markets, businesses, and institutions to foster growth and development.
Through Empowering Africa, Alliad aims to deepen discussions on the partnerships, investment, and innovation essential to converting Africa's potential into tangible results.
