The organisers of the Onitsha Business Hangout have said the South-East economy can only achieve sustainable growth through collective progress and collaboration, rather than isolated business competition.
Speaking during a pre-event media briefing, the Convener of the Onitsha Business Hangout, Mr. Ifeanyichukwu Ogbaji, said the fifth edition of the annual entrepreneurship symposium is designed to unlock the region’s agricultural potential by promoting value chain development.
The one-day event, themed “Agriculture Beyond Farming: Unlocking the Value Chain in the South-East,” will focus on expanding opportunities in agro-processing, packaging, logistics, technology-driven distribution and exports.
