Africa Report offering opportunities

Africa Report, the programme about business in Africa, has launched a new weekly feature: South African Opportunities. Speaking at the launch event, keynote speaker Samora Biko, welcomed South African Opportunities: "Prime time for South Africa is now. It is right now. Our country has a tremendous track record with 10 years of solid growth and probably the best economic fundamentals in Africa."

Biko continued: "Our investment climate is ever improving and our nation is widely recognised as an engine of growth for the continent. There has never been a more exciting time for the launch of a programme like South African Opportunities. We can finally show the world that this is where the action is, this is where they should be."

Biko Investments has recently entered into partnership with Africa Report, recognising the programme as a strategic platform for raising Africa's profile in the global marketplace.

Every week South African Opportunities will feature the top investment opportunities in the country and will present the best of South Africa companies and sectors to a global audience of 117 million homes in over 60 countries through its home channel CNBC Europe, as well as an additional 250 million viewers through eight African channels.

CNBC Europe is watched by 1.2 million of the top 20% income earners in Europe every week.

South African Opportunities aims to change the international perception of the South African business sector, and present the best of South African business talent to a global audience.

South African Opportunities can be seen four times weekly during Africa Report on CNBC Europe during prime time as well as on an extensive channel of networks worldwide (including the SABC, KTN Kenya, TV-3 Ghana, Minaj and MITV Lagos, DITV Kaduna, RSTV Port Harcourt, Silverbird Nigeria, Superscreen TV Lagos, Spectrum Cameroon, TeleAfrica Gabon and STV Mozambique).
