A platform for shared progress
The Third Canada–Africa Business Summit is convened by Marageri Ventures in partnership with Nomads Community Services, Digital Move IT & Telecom, and Livelihood Development International Initiatives. The summit brings together people and organizations working across the two regions. The first edition in 2025 and the second in 2026 created space for leaders, businesses, investors and institutions to meet, exchange experience and explore practical cooperation.
