Join us in celebrating one year of Shared Value in Nigeria at the CEO Connect Forum Nigeria 2025, an in-person event taking place in Nigeria on Wednesday, 25 June 2025. This forum is designed for African CEOs, entrepreneurs, and SME leaders to engage in thought leadership discussions that drive the African narrative through sustainability and ESG principles.

As the business landscape evolves, we will tackle the strategic importance of self-sufficiency and intra-African trade. Attendees will have the opportunity to network with industry leaders and gain insights into best practices that ensure long-term growth and value creation.

Our objectives for this forum:

• Shift the Narrative: Challenge aid-dependent perceptions by promoting a vision of African-led economic independence through private sector innovation, intra-African trade, and shared value business practices.
• Mobilise Leadership: Inspire CEOs and business leaders to lead from the front in shaping Africa’s economic future through inclusive, responsible, and impact-driven strategies.
• Foster Collaboration: Strengthen cross-sector and cross-border partnerships to accelerate Africa’s economic self-sufficiency, resilience, and regional competitiveness.
• Showcase African Business Leadership: Highlight real-world examples, research insights, and successful models that demonstrate the financial and societal value of purpose-led business.
• Promote Respectful and Inclusive Workplaces: Encourage businesses to adopt practical policies that foster safe, respectful environments—improving employee engagement, productivity, and long-term sustainability.
