“The forthcoming summit will underscore the importance of initiative and emphasise the need for African businesses to adopt global best practices while fostering intra-continental trade.

“We are driving global business transformation and pan-African integration because we want Africans to do business with Africans for Africa.

“It is crucial that we push the agenda of global business transformation, ensuring African businesses are equipped with global best practicesn,” Hills said.
She appealed to Nigeria to leverage the platform created by the summit, adding that the country had a lot to gain from the event.

Mr Paul Abbey, a Strategic Partner of ABLIS, said Nigeria should take advantage of the summit to market its rich in raw materials,.

“Obviously by collaboration and by exposing the potential of Nigeria, the continent will benefit and Nigeria will as well benefit, we have a lot of raw materials that need to be marketed out there.

“ABLIS is willing to create the platform for exposition; more businesses will know that Nigeria has raw materials; they will collaborate with government to further promote international trade,” he said.

Mr  Obinna Simon, another strategic partner, emphasised on the need for collaboration among Africa countries to develop their business competitive advantage, saying that there is no country that can stand on its own.

He said that collaboration provides the opportunity for countries to tap into businesses of other countries, adding that it also helps in the exchange ideas.

“Collaboration is a step towards development of the country, it will bring numerous opportunities for young people, creativity and investment opportunities”, Simon said. (NAN)
