Very interested to read your profile. I guess you know Gary Vaughan-Smith of Silver Street Capital and their developing agricultural investments, and Jon Maguire (Africa Invest) and his developments in Malawi and beyond. The link is my organisation, Transformational Business Network. Maybe we can meet at the event on 15 Sep?
