Keynote Speeches

During the event were special sessions focused on spotlighting some of the mentors and giants in the business and political industry and they delivered.

Q&A Sessions

We took the time to allow for the full participation of attendees in a question and answer phase during which each person could ask pertinent questions and get answers from speakers.

Roundtable Discussions

This year's roundtable discussion was special. It focused on challenging limitations and encouraging entrepreneurship and youth participation in politics.
