This show featured excerpts from the African Presidential Roundtable 2004 Public Forum that was held on April 27-28, 2004. Organized by Boston University’s African Presidential Archives and Research Center, the symposium brought together nine former Africa heads of state and American global business leaders, politicians and policymakers.

The three-day summit, which began at Boston University’s campus in London, England and wrapped up at the Charles River Campus in Boston, discussed strategies for attracting business and increasing capital flows to the African continent. These discussions followed closed-door talks on the subjects by the participants.
