WELCOME TO AFRICA TODAY CONFERENCE & SUMMIT
Africa is going through phenomenal changes. New prospects have been opening for the whole
of the continent - a continent that only a few years ago not many would like to touch even
with the longest spoon and do business with. Political liberalisation and
stability across the continent have been the driving force behind these changes. The
current stability now encourages investment and commercial interflow, both within Africa
and inter-continentally. As Africa’s leading news and current affairs magazine, Africa
Today - The Voice of the Continent, has thus the double entrepreneurial advantage of a
continent-wide and global readership and of being based in a world centre of finance and
commerce. Africa - and especially Nigeria, the continent’s largest economy, and South
Africa - a continent handsomely endowed with natural resources for self-development and
export, has a limitless customer potential as standards rise and improve. Africa Today, to
commemorate its 20th anniversary, offers a new opportunity for any forward-looking
enterprise to make the most of that potential and expand its business, by launching the
Africa Today Conference and Summit. Under this platform, we can continue to engage and
develop the African narrative with the hope that you will continue to invest in Africa and
in the future of its diverse people. I hope you will find time to attend our conference
and summit. Welcome. By Kayode Soyinka, Founder/Publisher, THE AFRICA TODAY GROUP.
