With the coronavirus pandemic, Africa has been hit by its biggest external shock since independence. The continent’s response has been rightly praised, but the health and economic consequences will be severe.

The FT are committed to covering these most pressing issues at the FT Africa Summit, already a flagship event. Despite the crisis – indeed because of it - they are determined to make this year bigger, better and more innovative than ever. This will be the one event on Africa you will need to attend for an informed discussion about what comes next.

You will be in good company, joined by a stellar list of the very top policymakers, business leaders, scientists, medical experts and entrepreneurs who are helping to shape the continent’s response to the crisis and chart the way forward.
