"It can only be good business for everybody if people do business in Africa. We'll all be that much better. That of course is what these awards are about. They enable businesses to make rational and considered decisions about where they are to invest, and to be able, therefore, to invest with confidence. That can only be good news for business and for Africa. I salute Diageo and those who have had the foresight to inaugurate these awards."
