On the first day of TXF MENA 2023 being held in Dubai, Rita Ricciardi, founding partner Bergs & More, took part in the panel “Sub-Saharan Adventures: mobilising Middle Eastern capital into Africa”. During the panel, focused on the Middle Eastern interest in Sub-Saharan Africa that is growing rapidly given the new geo-political order, Ricciardi spoke about Bergs & More’s long-term experience in Africa and the Gulf countries, and the network Bergs & More is creating between the three regions to support African business with financing or partners from the Gulf countries, using European technology. Bergs & More plays the role of deal breaker thanks to its unique technical ability in scouting projects and with the aim of filling the two most serious gaps: finance and technology for a growing and promising market, especially looking at what is happening in the world today. It is no coincidence that the firm is present with its offices in the three regions: Europe, Africa, and the Gulf countries. This presence guarantees the maximum support for the development of projects with the aim of enhancing cooperation.
