The industrialisation of African countries is now a top priority for most of the African governments that TBI is supporting. For many government leaders, it represents a vision of economic (And social) transformation for the entire country. As a result, TBI is strengthening its support to governments on this agenda.
TBI’s Indusrialisation Team is a central function that provides technical leadership and support to TBI’s embedded advisors supporting inclusive economic growth, job creation and industrialisation in multiple countries across Africa. The teams’ mission is to support the continent to establish or expand productive sectors, including manufacturing industries but also agro-processing and tradable service sectors like tourism and call centres, thereby creating jobs, know-how, net exports and tax revenues. This all needs to be done within the context of the fourth industrial revolution and the relatively tight policy window this provides.
The main support functions provided are market analysis, industry coordination support, tools and frameworks, delivery for industrialisation, investment facilitation, policy and thought leadership, marketing, business development, fundraising and management of the sectoral network.
The role will support our in-country teams advising African governments on our how to strengthen their industrial policy and how to accelerate its delivery. Our objective is to increase the capability of governments to implement smart export-oriented industrial strategies. Our approach is to embed a network of coordinated advisors in different economic ministries and agencies, including the Presidency, and by supporting those advisors centrally through activities such as sector analysis, plugging in our network to meet governments needs and supporting investor facilitation.
