Femmes d'Influence by D-Go Media offers a definitive look at the wealthiest individuals across Africa—entrepreneurs, investors, industrialists, and heirs whose fortunes are shaping the continent’s economic landscape. This annual ranking goes beyond net worth to examine influence, enterprise, and long-term impact. The 2025 list reflects a continent in motion. Africa’s top fortunes are increasingly driven by diversified businesses spanning finance, technology, energy, manufacturing, real estate, telecommunications, and natural resources. While traditional industries remain strong, a growing number of fortunes now originate from innovation-led sectors and pan-African expansion strategies. Compiled using extensive research and verified data, the rankings are based on estimated net worth, ownership stakes, asset values, market performance, and publicly available financial information, using valuations as of March 7, 2025. Currency fluctuations, private holdings, and regional market conditions were carefully considered to ensure accuracy and balance. Le Top 100 des Fortunes captures the individuals behind Africa’s largest fortunes—and the business decisions, risks, and visions that built them. Together, they represent not just wealth, but the economic power and entrepreneurial ambition driving Africa’s present and future.
