1Examining Africa's GrowthFanadihadihana Mikasika ny Fampandrosoana an'i Afrika
2This post is part of our special coverage Global Development 2011. While the African Development Bank announced three days ago that it will downgrade its forecast for growth in Africa as a result of the turmoil in various regions of the continent, the rate of return on foreign investment is higher in Africa than in any other developing regions.Raha nanambara ny Banky Afrikana ho an'ny Fampandrosoana telo andro lasa izay fa nampidininy ny fikasana hampandroso an'i Afrika noho ny fikorontanana misy ao amin'ny faritra maro ao amin'ny kaotinanta, avo kokoa ny tahan'ny fiverenan'ny famatsiam-bola vahiny dia ambony kokoa ao Afrika noho ny an'ny firenana an-dalam-pandrosoana hafa.
3Still, the perception hold by many investors is that doing business in Africa is a risky proposition and that the continent has yet to reach the status of a land of opportunities.Ary mbola maro koa ny mpampiasa vola no mihevitra fa fahasahisahiam-poana ny hanao fitadiavam-bola eto Afrika ary mila mahatratra ny satan'ny tany “fanararaotra” ny kaontinanta.
4Many endeavors have proven that perception to be inaccurate.Zava-bita marobe no manaporofo fa diso izany fomba fijery izany.

6Eric Kacou in Kigali opines that what is needed to succeed on the continent is a new brand of entrepreneurs; the ones he calls the “Archimedes Entrepreneurs”.Eric Kacou ao Kigali miray hevitra fa ny karazana mpandraharaha vaovao no tena ilaina mba hahita fahombiazana ao amin'ny kaontinanta; izay antsoiny hoe “Mpandraharaha Archimede”.
7Kacou explains what he means by that:Nanazava ny dikan'izany i Kacou :
8besides the unusual spark in [their] eyes, combine obsession to succeed and moral purpose so his heart will drive him to the right direction, wherever it is. Telephone entrepreneur on the streets around Church Square, Pretoria, South Africa.ankoatra ny mangirangirana tsy mahazatra hita eo amin'ny maso[ny], mampizoy fony ho amin'ny lalana marina hatrany na mitodika mankaiza na mitodika mankaiza ny fitambaran'ny finiavana hahomby sy ny fahaizana manararaotra amim-pahamendrehana.

Beside the recognition of real potentials, many African entrepreneurs are just fighting the general perception of gloom and doom for the continent.Ankoatra ny fanekena ny fisian'ny ny tena zava-misy azo atao, Afrikana maromaro no tsy manao afatsy ny miady amin'ny fijery ankapobeny ny aloka sy ny faharavana ho an'ny kaontinanta.
10For instance, Donald Bobiash, Director-General of Africa at Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada, wrote the following about the “Africa Rising” conference held in Toronto on March 14-15, 2011:Ohatra, i Donald Bobiash, Tale-Jeneraly ny Raharaham-bahiny sy ny varotra iraisam-pirenena an'i Kanadà ao Afrika, nanoratra toy izao momba ny valandresaka “ Miarina i Afrika” izay natao tao Toronto tamin'ny 14 sy 15 marsa lasa teo:
