The Africa Business Conference is sponsored by the Africa Business Club at the Harvard Business School, and will hold at Harvard Business School’s campus in Boston from February 26-28. The conference panel sessions and gala will hold on Saturday, February 27.
 
Pinnick, a member of the CAF organizing committee for the Africa Cup of Nations and the organizing committee for the FIFA U-20 World Cup, has been invited as a distinguished panelist for the paper, Football in Africa.
 
The letter of invitation read, inter alia: “We believe that your experience as a football administrator will uniquely help us deliver a rich panel and ultimately a very successful conference to our over 1,200 conference attendees from all over the world.

This year’s theme, “Unite. Innovate. Disrupt: Homegrown models for Africa’s prosperity” will aim to celebrate and promote awareness of existing innovative solutions that have been deployed in Africa.”
