BOOSTING AFRICA'S TOP 100 SMES:

TWO DAYS DEDICATED TO WEALTH CREATION AND GROWTH

The AFRICA SME CHAMPIONS FORUM is the leading event dedicated to accelerating the growth of African SMEs. The forum usually brings together nearly 500 participants, including business leaders, financial institutions, start-ups, and experts in SME development, serving as a vibrant hub for fostering connections and sparking innovative solutions.

Since its inception in 2014, the forum has been dedicated to transforming the SME landscape and supporting the growth of these crucial drivers of African economies. In today’s dynamic environment, with the urgent need for rapid industrialization in a digital era, it creates unprecedented opportunities for SMEs to flourish. To fully capitalize on these opportunities, African SMEs need access to critical connections, funding, and empowerment tools.

This year’s forum will adopt a highly focused approach, exclusively targeting the top 100 SMEs across Africa. By providing a more strategic and impactful setting, the forum is designed to deliver tailored support, forge high-value partnerships, and serve as a dedicated platform for knowledge-sharing, networking, and driving innovation. Through this unique format, we aim to unlock new pathways for sustainable growth and job creation, accelerating the development of Africa’s next generation of business champions.

Don’t miss the opportunity to be part of this transformative event. Join us in Abidjan to connect, learn, and lead the future of African SMEs. Register now!
