The conference focuses on sustainability for trade associations, chambers of commerce and sustainable business in Nigeria with the aim to drive honest conversation and generate dialogue around critical issues. Conversation are weaved around some of the changes we see in today’s governance and leadership such as challenging economic times, high rate of kidnapping, incessant protests, civil unrest, japa syndrome, volatile gruesome events, deteriorating communities, a growing social divide and rapid-changing technology. Discovering strategies to subdue these risks will be a huge factor for business survival as we strove through the 21st century.
Every entity operates under one economy which is practically the ground of convergence for all sectors and industry. This reality appeals for an innovative mechanism which saw the berth of Conference of Nigeria Trade Associations. We are inspired by veritable achievement over time; share and believe in Sustainable Development Goals 2030, as well as in the Africa Agenda 2063.
