The symposium followed up on a first meeting held in Washington in October 2008. Taking place at the margins of the Annual Meetings of the African Development Bank, the event brought together African Ministers, senior private sector representatives, and officials from multilateral and bilateral development institutions to discuss what constraints prevent private investment from filling a greater portion of the power infrastructure gap in Africa.
