Black House Media, a prominent African communications firm, is organizing a high-level breakfast gathering to explore the continent’s trajectory toward sustainable growth and social advancement.

The company announced the event, dubbed “Africa Breakfast Convos”, in a Thursday statement, revealing a collaboration with Allison, a global communications entity.

The conference is slated for the World Trade Center during the 79th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA79), convening esteemed leaders from Africa’s business and public spheres.

According to the organizers, the event will assemble influential figures from diverse industries, including telecommunications, finance, technology, and entertainment.

Highlighting the meeting’s significance, the organizers noted Africa’s youthful demographic, with 70 percent of sub-Saharan Africa’s population under 30, and projected that by 2030, one in five global citizens will be African.

“This is a critical moment for Africa’s development, with growing investment and expansion in sectors like technology and renewable energy,” the statement reads.

The event aligns with the UNGA 79 theme, ‘Leaving No One Behind: Acting Together for the Advancement of Peace, Sustainable Development, and Human Dignity for Present and Future Generations’, by focusing on Africa’s capacity to drive global progress.
