Trends in Sustainability and Initiative Launch

Africa Resilience Innovation Series
April 21, 2022
3:00PM - 5:00PM SAST

Join us as we launch the very first Africa Resilience Innovation Series (ARIS). The series will bring together the continent’s most forward-thinking corporations and startups working on sustainable solutions to mitigate change and improve resilience to climate impact.

Africa stands to be the most detrimentally impacted by climate events. This can be seen in the increasing incidences of, severe weather disasters on the continent in recent years. Extreme droughts and floods, for example, have caused massive food insecurity and economic instability, eroding development gains.

During this event, Plug and Play will showcase trends in Sustainability Innovation, driving positive impact and increasing resilience by featuring solutions from the continent's most exciting startups.

This session will also present an opportunity to get a first look at our new program and learn how we aim to accelerate resilience innovation in 2022.

This event will be an exclusive opportunity for you to meet with other corporations, startups and investors! We look forward to seeing you there!
