Further, the Summit will feature more than 100 multinationals, regional conglomerates, local and start-up companies that will be showcasing their latest products and services to the attendees at the extensive Expo Hall – providing new technologies and ideas that are required as Africa transitions into a major player in the World’s economy.
At the Summit, participants will delve deep into how to enhance strategic leadership in Africa; boost business performance and trade within Africa; improve local resources utilisation and manufacturing to meet the rising demand for goods and services; advance personal and community health and food security for the growing population; and how to accelerate digitalisation, investments and sustainability across Africa, among other critical issues.
The theme at the 2024 edition of the Summit will be TAKING THE LEAP: ACCELERATING BUSINESSES GROWTH, STRATEGIC LEADERSHIP & AFRICAN TRANSFORMATION THROUGH NEW TECHNOLOGIES, which fits perfectly with the Summit’s main agenda of providing the platform where new ideas on business innovation, leadership transformation and African growth can be debated and analysed by key decision makers across the Continent and beyond.
