Glad to have been part of the #AFSIC2026 in London, championing conversations that connect capital with opportunity and support Rwanda’s next generation of growing businesses.
At @AFSICafrica 2026 in London, Team Rwanda showcased Rwanda’s investment opportunities through the Rwanda Country Summit, convened by @Kigali_IFC, @RDBrwanda and @RSSB_Rwanda, under the theme “Investing in Rwanda: Where Innovation, Inclusion and Capital Meet.” In his remarks, H.E. @BusingyeJohns, Rwanda’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, highlighted the country’s investment potential and opportunities for stronger international partnerships. Institutional investors and fund managers domiciled under KIFC (@RSSB_Rwanda , @wariobaventures, @RugoriNetwork ) came together for a panel discussion to explore how capital can reach businesses with growth potential. The conversation highlighted that Rwanda has incredible investment opportunities, but unlocking them requires investment-ready businesses with strong governance, reliable financial information and scalable models. Bridging financing gaps calls for partnerships between international investors, domestic institutions, fund managers and local businesses. KIFC and RDB support market entry and investment structuring, while RSSB is open to credible co-investment opportunities. Opportunities span agriculture, healthcare, education and financial services, with Rwanda serving as a gateway to wider African markets. The summit also promoted the Inclusive FinTech Forum (#IFF2027), which will take place in Kigali on 16–18 March 2027 and continue to connect African and global stakeholders around innovation and inclusive finance. #AFSIC2026 #InvestInRwanda View event photos: flickr.com/photos/187166471@…
