The global business mixer drew a huge turnout of ceos, top executives, entrepreneurs and startups on Tuesday evening at the oriental hotel, lagos. The 800-seater hall was filled, creating a strong platform for networking within the business community.
The event served as a prelude to the global entrepreneurship festival (GEF) scheduled for November 21–23 in ghana. Delivering the welcome address, chairman of the global business mixer (nigeria), Jubril Arogundade, highlighted the importance of platforms that connect businesses across borders and unlock opportunities that strengthen industries and economies.
"Our theme today, 'global business: unlocking cross-border trade,' is not just a topic for discussion—it is a call to action. It challenges each of us to reimagine how we do business, to break barriers, and to open doors that lead to greater success across nations," he said.
