Shared Value Africa Initiative

NEWSLETTER FEBRUARY 2026

FROM MOMENTUM TO SYSTEMS CHANGE

As we enter a year of global volatility, we release the Shared Value Africa 2025 Impact Report, which frames the continent’s trajectory as one defined by contribution rather than constraint. This report is not a celebration of activity but a deliberate instrument of accountability, marking our strategic shift toward building the deep institutional infrastructure and systems necessary for long-term impact. Through initiatives like the JamiiTrade platform, our Gender Equality Unit, and CEO Connect Forums, we are moving beyond symbolic endorsements to create value that is economically viable and socially relevant. Our invitation to Africa’s private sector is to move from commitment to implementation, recognising that profit and purpose are mutually reinforcing drivers of growth. Ultimately, our next chapter will be shaped by leadership willing to act with clarity, courage, and accountability.

INSPIRING QUOTE OF THE MONTH

“Africa’s next chapter will be shaped by leaders willing to act - with clarity, courage, and accountability.”

The programme includes an Executive Roundtable and Applied Reporting Training covering climate change, materiality, compliance, sustainability, finance and risk - equipping organisations to integrate responsible business practices into decision-making and strategy.


This forum brings together senior executives, directors and board members for strategic dialogue on Shared Value and ESG governance, alongside practical training in applied sustainability reporting.

ASV & ESG SUMMIT | 25-26 May 2026 | In-person

The 2026 Africa Shared Value & ESG Summit is where Africa’s business leaders move beyond statements to embed Shared Value and ESG into core strategy - strengthening competitiveness, unlocking growth, and positioning organisations for the future economy.


The Summit convenes executives, investors, policymakers and innovators who are actively shaping markets - not observing them - engaging how value creation, risk, capital and impact converge in business decision-making.


As economic, environmental and geopolitical pressures reshape operating landscapes, this platform focuses on practical leadership responses that drive performance while strengthening long-term societal resilience.
