Lead Migration Consultant @ Peamev Consult Limited | Global Immigration Solutions | Business Development Management || Building Peamev Holdings
Sometimes, one may wonder why businesses look to expand their operations and subsequently their trading presence beyond their home countries, venturing into the uncertainties that comes with new markets. My team and I some 2years ago took a close look at African businesses that have successfully penetrated the U.K and European markets, trying to understand their WHY which was paramount for us in our quest to be available to render smooth transition for businesses and founders from Africa that yearn to expand their business operations into the U.K markets. We realized that, while profit may seem like the utmost goal, a few businesses that have successfully built a trading presence in the U.K market had other reasons like; -Global competitive edge based on industry data -Strategic alliances and partnerships -Access to diversified human, talent, innovative technology resources -Legal and regulatory benefits -Enhanced brand image as well as access to a whole new market -Economic incentives depending on industry Businesses that have strong affiliation to ethnicity (Businesses within the fashion, lifestyle and food industry) have been able to carve a niche of not just serving their indigenous communities but also promoting their cultural background, this in turn increases the overall acceptability and cultural tolerance in the U.K, Making room for scaling into other European markets. No one has been able to surmount the challenges of a new market alone, immigrants face a different kind of challenge. We hope to see you at the Global Business Founders Workshop, let’s get together the much needed blueprint to conquer the daunting challenge of expanding our business operations into the U.K See You! https://lnkd.in/dCbqmXYX

💡 Insights from INSEAD Africa Club's "How Asian Businesses Can Grow on the African Continent" Panel 💡 The Africa South East Asia Chamber of Commerce was proudly represented by our Advisory Board Chairman Paulo Gomes at this panel hosted by Claudia Zeisberger. Here are some key highlights from the discussion: 🛍 Retail Potential: Dominique LECOSSOIS drew parallels from his experience in #retail in Asia, highlighting significant investment opportunities in Africa's retail sector. He emphasised the importance of simplifying objectives and adapting strategies to meet local market dynamics, particularly in industries reliant on intensive human resources. 🌾 Agricultural Potential: Devashish Chaubey provided insights into the #agriculture landscape in Africa, noting its immense potential despite challenges like low productivity and climate vulnerability. He explained Olam's efforts in mechanising farming and improving agricultural practices to boost productivity and support local economies. 🤝 China-Africa Trade: Manyika Kangai discussed the success of Chinese investment in Africa in sectors like #telecommunications and #infrastructure, outlining the factors that contributed to Huawei's successful expansion into Africa. He also highlighted the significance of trade agreements like AGOA and COMESA in facilitating market access and stimulating economic growth. 👨💻 Fintech Innovations: Joshua Yau highlighted the transformative impact of #fintech in Africa, with advancements in digital payments and financial inclusion driving economic empowerment. He underscored the crucial role of technology in fostering entrepreneurship and economic development across the continent. Paulo Gomes similarly talked about the importance of adapting financial instruments to support farmers and other workers. 📈 Investment Climate and Policy: Paulo Gomes discussed the readiness of private #capital to invest in Africa, noting the importance of identifying investable companies that align with strategic growth sectors. At the same time, Manyika Kangai posited that PE/VC funds may not be the right capital to inject at this point - instead, Africa should tap on its young people as its greatest resource, restructuring policy so the youth can become successful entrepreneurs. 🌍 Regional Cooperation: Paulo Gomes emphasised that African countries should better cooperate with one another to attract investors, while segmenting the Asian market instead of viewing it as a monolith. Manyika Kangai further stressed the importance of finding Africa's centres of development that can lead the charge in certain key issues. ASEACC thanks all speakers for sharing their unique insights on growth opportunities between Asia and Africa, highlighting a promising future that unlocks Africa's vast potential. 🌠 Leave a comment below to continue the discussion, and follow us for more news about #Africa and #Asia / #SouthEastAsia! #INSEAD #ASEACC
