The Nuts and Bolts of Public-Private Partnerships
Reliable infrastructure isn’t just a convenience; it’s a prerequisite for a thriving business environment which in turn enables sustainable economic development. Without it, foreign investors may look elsewhere and the ripple effect can be far-reaching, impacting trade and even driving away local entrepreneurs. For instance, Innovisa, a company that processes visas for tech entrepreneurs, reported in 2022 that around 40 Nigerian startup owners move to the UK each year. The reason? Robust ICT infrastructure and a more diverse pool of investors.
