<p>The AfCFTA opportunity is unprecedented, the largest free trade area in the world since the formation of the WTO, representing a combined GDP of more than $3,4 trillion and counting. It is estimated that the agreement will further boost intra-African trade by 52 per cent by 2022 and trade integration could triple trade and investments. But, for all this to be true, Africa hast to develop and invest in infrastructure to enable the African Continental Free Trade Area. In this conversation, moderator Nozipoho Tshabalala, CEO of The Conversation Strategies and the panel talk about the infrastructure gaps that still exist and ask courageous questions about how they will be closed&#8230;.</p>

<p>By all accounts Africa does not have the infrastructure it requires to boost intra-African trade, let alone trade with the rest of the world. So the argument about financing infrastructure and/or maintaining it moot. So how do we do it? Do we have the money? What kind of money is required and can we afford it?&#8230;</p>
