From the initial feedback we are already getting, we are confident that our strategies for this conference will lead to the achievement of the stated goal. For one, we are inviting innovators across all fields to exhibit their inventions, products, and ideas to potential investors and policymakers. We are also inviting the best minds in academia and industry to contribute their findings, theories, and ideas to the ULBS Journal of Business and Management which will be published both in print and online at the time of the conference. And very importantly, our key speakers are drawn from the finest in academia and the heavyweights from industry, and among policymakers. We truly expect that this conference will set a new high standard in the collaboration between academia and industry in Nigeria and possibly across Africa and will become a conference to reference.

The conference is going to be a hybrid of physical and virtual participation and we expect participants from all over the world.
