About Us
We are an organization built by Africans, focused on securing Africa’s seat on the global table.
Founded in Zimbabwe, and initially officialized in 2015, the Branding Africa Trust started mostly as a think tank comprising 4 individuals, with a focus to diagnose the collective African economy and identify key action areas to positively impact each facet of building a competitive Africa. It was obvious that it all ultimately depends on people. That is what we are all about Our philosophy is underpinned by the concept of empire building i.e. while the investment of our collective resources will deliver some benefits today, it is primarily geared towards delivering exponential benefits for future generations, that are sustainable. This starts with instilling and enforcing the culture of Ubuntu – “I am because we are”. All beneficiaries of our work begin with making an active pledge that they will actively seek to extend their hand to pull fellow Africans up across the multiple facets in which they develop influence or knowledge.
