By Chris BishopAfrica Forbes: Africa's Billionaires book by Chris Bishop
The inspirational stories of the wealthiest men and women on the African continent. Features Aliko Dangote, Patrice Motsepe and Mohammed Ruparelia, among many others.
Do you have what it takes to become a billionaire?
Written by the founding editor of Forbes Africa, this is a masterclass on how the brightest and most successful entrepreneurs across Africa made their fortunes, as well as a timely look at how the work of entrepreneurs can influence lives in Africa and create the jobs that governments can no longer provide.
Chris Bishop gets up close and personal with the biggest names in business on the continent: Aliko Dangote, Patrice Motsepe, Nicky Oppenheimer, Christo Wiese, Wendy Appelbaum and Stephen Saad, among others. These are the stories of how they not only survived, but thrived, in the fast and furious world of African business: Narendra Raval, the penniless priest who became a stee! baron; Tim Tebeila, the barefoot apple-seller who tumed into a mining millionaire; Herman Mashaba, the ‘knocksman’ who went from running dice games and dealing drugs to running a city; Pascal Dozie, the economics student who studied with Mick Jagger…
This is a rich tapestry of stories about the super-wealthy and the qualities that make them so spectacularly successful, in arguably the most challenging economic arena in the world.
