Hosted by Cornell’s Emerging Markets Institute, the Emerging Markets Webinar Series is a monthly initiative that highlights key concepts and ideas occurring in emerging markets. The theme for 2021 is “Building Bridges and Encouraging Dialogue,” with online sessions profiling four emerging markets: Africa, Latin America, India, and China. The goal of the webinar series is to engage and educate the community about emerging trends worldwide, aided by a panel of economic development experts on each region.

The first session in the series showcases Africa, as four panelists discuss the challenges and opportunities presented by this exciting emerging market.
