AFRICA YOUTH LEADERSHIP & ECONOMIC SUMMIT 2018

The AFRICA YOUTH LEADERSHIP & ECONOMIC SUMMIT 2018 slated for 3rd – 5th of May is set to hold at the prestigious Eko Convention Center, Eko Hotel & Suites.*

Entrepreneurship play an important role in the existence and functioning of states as they present an opportunity for young people to contribute to the socio-economic development of any country through innovation.

Entrepreneurs are the driving force that keeps our economy rolling. But the life of an Entrepreneur is not that rosy. They have to take an insane amount of risk, swim against the tide and have to come up with new ideas to emerge as successful entrepreneurs. As evident, managing all these different activities simultaneously is immensely tough. Just like any other human beings, Entrepreneurs are also in need of some assistance so that they can do their job in an efficient way. Thanks to the massive advancement in the field of technology in the past few decades, lives of the entrepreneurs have become much easier.

The main Goal of the summit is to create a space that bring different stakeholders to deliberate and charter an effective course of action of entrepreneurship and actors across the continent on strategies to uphold and strengthen entrepreneurship values through technology in consonant with the united nations Sustainable Development Goals (2015-2030) Goal 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth ) and Agenda 2063 of the African Union.
