3Boom. So much anti-hydro sentiment neglects the bigger picture and the realities. https://t.co/6WxlLCIeRu
This is excellent news!
I have long argued a world class trade policy is not just about exporting or inward FDI, it is also about outward FDI and access to high quality, reliable & sustainable imports.
Promoting (African) imports is win-win for UK consumers and African exports https://t.co/PQKIJGIq4l
Today, the #UKAfricaInvestmentSummit is taking place, bringing 15 African Heads of State to London to help shape the #UK's future strategy with #Africa. Here's what our CEO @hmryder suggests should be in that strategy - based on lessons learnt from #China

This expose on one of #Africa's richest people, released on the same day as the #UKAfricaInvestmentSummit & #WEF2020 is truly incredible reading. Particularly as over 30% of the #UK's investment in Africa has gone to financial services. Time for a refocus.

"The UK should use the summit to ask African leaders 'What can we do?' Too often the question is the other way around: telling Africans what to do."

In 20 years’ time, more than one in four of the world’s people will be African. The best way of serving Britain’s — as well as Africa’s — interests is to ensure a healthy trade & investment relationship that helps African economies thrive. #InvestInAfrica https://t.co/KDUtkCeErf
"Last but not least, the third lesson from China is to actively use the summits to ask African leaders a very specific question: 'What can we do?'. Too often, and especially where the UK is concerned - the question is the other way around:" @hmryder https://t.co/ouC2LKUPuk
"The UK’s aid, trade and investment patterns still reflect an old picture of Africa that remains rooted in a colonial and paternalistic mindset," @hmryder on what needs to change for #UKAfricaInvestmentSummit

And by nice chance I saw this article straight after tweeting about the UK needing to show humility... https://t.co/JEL8PBIZqC
@hmryder @marcusryder Thank you for this Hannah and Marcus. And of course, the irony, and perhaps mindset... As one partner leaves a union, others form one (AfCFTA). Interesting times ahead.
An absolutely brilliant piece by @hmryder on what the UK can learn from China when it comes to hosting Africa summits. If you care about Africa development and/or if you care about UK trade deals post Brexit this is a must read. (She is my wife but I stan) https://t.co/00ATfyavG3
