Johannesburg — Africa investor (Ai), a leading international investment and communications group, today announced that its Africa Infrastructure Investment Projects Roadshow, taking place in Cape Town on June 2-3, is attracting both African and global infrastructure investors, private sector project developers and PPP and Privatisation Units.

Commenting on the Summits, Hubert Danso, CEO and Vice Chairman of Africa investor stated; “While infrastructure investment returns in Africa outstrip that of their peers in global infrastructure markets, intermediation between project developers and infrastructure investors remains an area in need professional intermediation.
