    The Insight Edge | Episode 1: East Africa: A Rising Giant or a False Dawn?

    East Africa is one of the most closely watched economic regions on the continent, and for good reason.    In this episode of The Insight Edge, we unpack one of the most important questions facing the region today: Is East Africa truly driving its own story?    It is set to be Africa’s fastest-growing sub-region, while the wider Sub-Saharan Africa outlook points to growth strengthening to an average of 4.0% in 2026–2027. At the same time, EAC (East African Community) data shows regional trade has grown, but barriers to integration and execution still limit how much value the region captures.    In this episode, we discuss:  the realities behind the East African growth narrative;  the region’s policy and execution gaps; and  the role of entrepreneurs, professionals, and the private sector.    This is a conversation for policymakers, business leaders, entrepreneurs, professionals, and anyone interested in the future of East Africa.    Watch the full episode, share your perspective, and subscribe for more conversations at the intersection of business, policy, and regional transformation.  🌐 Connect with us   🎧 Website Podcast Page: https://www.rsm.global/kenya/the-insight-edge 🔗 LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/company/rsmeasternafrica  📸 Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/rsmeasternafrica/  📘 Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/RSMEasternAfrica/
