WISHING YOU ALL A WARM
WELCOME
It is always a privilege to bring visionary Africans together to share exciting ideas, insights and opportunities on the continent. As we’ve evolved over the past 13 years from a non-profit entity into a fully-fledged panAfrican recruitment firm, our success is attributed to the relationships we’ve created with global Africans. As the Brain Gain company for Africa, we need your help in building relationships with top talent abroad in order to keep reminding them about the exciting career opportunities across the continent. This can only be possible with the help of your “collective voices”, which will help us to build even stronger relationships with our global family. Today, each guest is invited to introduce themselves and briefly share an insight, experience or message of inspiration. These messages will go a long way towards our continent’s Brain Gain. Thank you for sharing these golden moments with us today.

MY AFRICA is the warm sunshine that burns inside me.
THE LAND WHERE ROOTS
take hold & don’t let go, as solid as the
BAOBAB TREE. THE PLACE WHERE I BREATHE
in every emotion of human existence. The highs and the lows, the chaos and the calm, the rage and the joy, the hate and the love.
My Africa is the heartbeat of my soul that
whispers to me over the ocean and
CALLS ME HOME...
