Greetings, and thank you for visiting the Economic Club of Africa in New York (ECANY)!

For five years, we have dedicated ourselves to deepening commercial and innovation exchanges by providing members with unfettered access to actionable trade and investment themes.

To unlock Africa’s huge economic potential, access to global capital markets is key. And this starts with addressing the twin issues of information asymmetry and investors’ risk perception. New York is a global leader in finance and innovation. With deep roots in the world’s financial capital, ECANY is leading the way.

Our overarching goal is to foster mutually beneficial commercial and innovation exchanges by connecting capital, expertise, and opportunity. It’s a win-win! ECANY is excited about the future. Our commitment to excellence is built on a foundation of integrity, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

As we continue to push the boundaries of what is possible and shape the success of our community, we invite you to join us. All in-person events take place in the Big Apple!

Thank you for being a part of our story.

Dr. Fred Olayele
Chair, Board of Directors
