Mapping Africa’s consumer spending landscape

Urbanisation and pockets of increased socio-economic development have resulted in African cities becoming hotspots from a consumer spending perspective. The concentration of individuals increasingly enjoying a rise in discretionary income provides market potential far exceeding that seen outside of these geographies. In this webinar we map Africa’s consumer spending landscape by showing in which cities the most spending is taking place and exploring where we can expect to see the strongest growth in consumer spending over the next decade.

We will be repeating the same webinar to cater for the difference in time zones between the Americas, APAC and EMEA:

  • EMEA – Tuesday 30th March | 10:00 BST (11:00 SAST)
  • Americas – Tuesday 30th March | 16:00 EDT
  • APAC – Wednesday 31st March | 10:00 HKT

Extending the Ladder – a Leaders and Laggards Scenario

The Global Climate Service (GCS) quantifies the macroeconomic impacts of six climate scenarios against our Oxford Economics baseline. These scenarios help businesses understand the trade-offs and implications of climate mitigation. In this webinar, we will look at our new GCS scenario and examine the role of innovation in the green transition. This quarter, our new scenario “Leaders and Laggards” explores the potential impacts of a less ambitious scenario where countries with the capacity to lead in the transition do so anyway, reaping benefits from innovation and technological advancement. Countries that lack the resources and political support are slower to transition but benefit from spill overs. Even so, less ambition leads to more warming, and the world does not reach net zero.

The future of European industrial competitiveness

Since the onset of the energy crisis much has been made of the threat of European deindustrialisation—the notion that large swathes of manufacturing are going to permanently leave Europe because of a degraded competitive position. Join us to hear us decompose European industry's short-, medium, and long-term challenges, define what deindustrialisation would look like and how likely it is, and outline our latest research on which industries are poised to decline and which ones are in a good position to keep growing as the industry cycle turns—and beyond.
