From 22 August 大象传媒 World News launches Africa Business Report 鈥� a groundbreaking new show featuring the triumphs and challenges of doing business on the continent some economists are calling the last great frontier.

The monthly programme is sponsored by Skye Bank and will capture some of the energy and diversity of business life in Africa. Presenter Komla Dumor will travel the continent meeting the hot new entrepreneurs and the international giants shaping economic life there.

Programme one comes from South Africa - the most powerful economy in Africa. There'll be a special report uncovering the foundations of the country鈥檚 construction boom, and a look at how one small business owner is making money ahead of the arrival of the South Africa 2010 World Cup.

Interviews with Francois Diedrechsen, the Financial and Commercial Director of Raubex Construction (Pty), Ltd and Chris Hart, a leading South African economist, will provide a unique insight into the complexities and opportunities being faced by companies trading in Africa.

Komla Dumor, presenter of Africa Business Report, says: 鈥淚t鈥檚 a privilege to present Africa Business Report during a time in which the continent is developing its economic growth and business future. I鈥檝e had the opportunity to travel the world but it鈥檚 in Africa where I feel a real energy emerging from a generation of young entrepreneurs who are determined to compete on a global scale.鈥�
