Meet our 2024 Speakers

The roles for Economic Development and sustainability are beyond the confine effort of a single trade association, individual or organization hence the clarion demand for a broad base multi-stakeholder conference

The Conference

The beam of the theme is on Nigeria being the most populous country in Africa. Nigeria exerts a great influence in Africa due its population size of about 200 million among others and often referred to as the giant of Africa. The country like other developing countries is faced with several developmental, environmental and socio-economic challenges. The deteriorating economic environment is leaving millions of Nigerians in poverty. The economy is projected to grow by an average of 2.9% per year between 2023 and 2025, only slightly above the estimated population growth rate of 2.4%; this projection raises concerns.

The Conference aim to drive honest conversation and generate dialogue around critical issues. Conversations are weaved around some of the changes we see in today’s governance and leadership era; such as sovereign threat, deteriorating communities, hunger, Kidnapping, Japa syndrome, challenging economic times across board, separatist agitations, volatile gruesome events, a growing social divide, phobia and rapid-changing technology. Discovering strategies to subdue these risks will be a huge factor for business survival as we strove through the century.  

Authors are invited to submit their full papers in English on original work for publication and presentation at the 6th edition of CONiTA’ 2024 Conference. Abstract submission opens from Monday, June 3rd, 2024. It is a two-day event; day for 1 for paper presentation while day 2 is for empirical evidence and site visits. The event offers value to trade associations across the public service, private and manufacturing sectors of Nigeria. The roles for Economic Development and sustainability are beyond the confine effort of a single trade association, individual or organization hence the clarion demand for a broad base multi-stakeholder conference.
